The Chelsea, led by Enzo Maresca, has set its sights on a rejected player from Manchester United. Antony, the Brazilian winger from the "Red Devils," is said to be on the way out. After arriving in the summer of 2022 for a record fee of 95 million euros from Ajax, he has not met the Manchester board's expectations.

Anthony's season at Old Trafford has been marked by ups and downs, and despite high expectations, the forward has failed to establish himself in the Dutch coach's system. His ability to dribble and create chances has earned him some recognition, but the opportunities to start in the team have dwindled. This has sparked Chelsea's interest, as they could take advantage of the player's situation and add him to their ranks to strengthen their offense.

At Stamford Bridge, the executives see Antony as an addition that could provide more dynamism in the final third of the field, an area where the team has shown deficiencies. The Brazilian winger stands out for his one-on-one ability and speed, qualities that fit well with the style of play the Chelsea coach wants to implement.

Everything will depend on possible departures from the Chelsea team.

Currently, Chelsea has an overbooking in the forward line, causing a lack of playing time for some players like Mudryk, who are on the way out.

For now, we will have to wait for the departures of Chelsea players, and the lack of income from sales could prevent Antony from wearing the Stamford Bridge team's shirt in the next transfer market.
