Manchester United reportedly settle on asking prices for each of Jadon Sancho and Antony, who are out of favour at Old Trafford.

Manchester United are reportedly willing to sell Jadon Sancho and Antony for fees of £50m.

When the Red Devils acquired the pair from Borussia Dortmund and Ajax respectively, the expectation was that United had brought in players who would down a regular spot on the flanks.

Instead, the Premier League giants have two players at their disposal who cost in excess of £155m and have not come close to justifying their price tags.

In the case of Sancho, he has been loaned back to Dortmund having fallen out with Erik ten Hag and refused to apologise for his subsequent response on social media.

Meanwhile, Antony has failed to contribute either a goal or assist during his 22 outings in all competitions during the 2023-24 campaign.

While appearances continue to be made on a regular basis, the Brazil international is no longer viewed as first choice by Ten Hag.

Although United are keen to strengthen their squad as soon as possible, FFP restrictions are preventing them from doing so, putting them in a position where a big-money sale would significantly benefit their cause.

According to the Evening Standard, United would be willing to accept offers of £50m for either of the two players in 2024.

Any sale of Sancho would not come until the summer at the earliest, yet United will be encouraged that the 23-year-old has already impressed in his 101 minutes of Bundesliga action.

Nevertheless, it is claimed that clubs competing in the Saudi Pro League have been asked whether they hold an interest in either of the aforementioned players.

As it stands, Saudi Arabian clubs are seemingly considering their stance on the pair, although it is suggested that negotiating a deal for midfielder Casemiro would be their preference.

The Brazil international recently returned to the squad after a long injury layoff, but he has not made an appearance since November 1.

With Casemiro just 18 months into a long-term contract at United, it is unclear whether he would be willing to take on a new challenge so soon after ending his long-term association with Real Madrid.
