Manchester United are considering whether to make an improved bid for Antony after seeing a €90 million offer rejected by Ajax on Friday, sources have told ESPN.
United increased their bid after a €80m offer was turned down earlier this month, but it has not been enough to tempt Ajax to agree a deal.

Sources have told ESPN that United are weighing up whether to make another bid or to turn their attention to other targets.
PSV Eindhoven‘s Cody Gakpo, Chelsea‘s Christian Pulisic and Borussia Monchengladbach‘s Marcus Thuram are also on the radar with Erik ten Hag keen to strengthen his forward line before next week’s transfer deadline.
Sources have told ESPN that Antony has informed Ajax that he wants to move to Old Trafford but so far the Dutch side have remained firm in their stance that the 22-year-old will stay at the club this season.
