Manchester United contact Saudi clubs in hopes of offloading £159m duo for £50m each

Manchester United have reportedly offered lacklustre duo Antony and Jadon Sancho to Saudi Pro League clubs in the hope of recuperating a respectable fee.

The wingers have endured underwhelming United careers since making their respective switches from Borussia Dortmund and Ajax, and Sancho has since returned to his former club on loan for the second half of the 2023/2024 campaign after a public fallout with Erik ten Hag.

Meanwhile, Antony is yet to register a single goal contribution across his 22 outings this term. He retains the backing of his manager but has recently dropped behind youngster Alejandro Garnacho in the pecking order.

As per the Standard, the two 23-year-olds, who cost a combined £159 million – Sancho £73m and Antony £86m – have been given a price tag of £50m each for any Saudi sides willing to take on their services.

Casemiro and Raphael Varane are actively being targeted by clubs in the division and while United will expect a suitable amount for the former, the latter is more likely to leave for free when his contract expires in June.
