Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on Manchester United players Antony, Jadon Sancho and Scott McTominay.
All three are thought to be facing uncertain futures at Old Trafford. Antony, in addition to his domestic violence allegations, is increasingly coming to be regarded as one of the worst pieces of business in Premier League history. The Brazilian's consistently bad performances and antics have led to questions being asked of Erik ten Hag and his recruitment after the Dutchman greenlit the splashing of €95 million on the 23-year-old.
Sancho, meanwhile, remains in exile after publicly hitting out at Ten Hag in September. Finally, McTominay has recently emerged as an unlikely hero and clawed his way back into the team after seemingly being on the way out in the summer.

Romano has now revealed the latest on all three and he even claimed that the Red Devils hadn't actually been particularly keen on offloading McTominay in the first place.
What did Romano say?
Speaking to CaughtOffside, the transfer expert asserted: “For Scott McTominay, the situation has not really changed for a year now – the feeling has always been that he’s not untouchable for Man United, but it would have to be an important proposal for them to consider letting him go...I think he has a chance to stay at the club until the end of the season..."
“Antony’s situation remains quiet, there is nothing with any other club at all. Manchester United of course hope to resolve his situation off the pitch as soon as possible, because it’s obviously going to affect his performances. But for the moment there is no plan for Antony and Man United to part ways in January."

“That’s not the case with Jadon Sancho, however, who I would say is looking 99% likely to leave United this January...The only way this could change is if Sancho decides to apologise in a very special way to Erik ten Hag and his coaching staff, but it’s almost two months now and nothing has changed, so the feeling of those close to the player is that he will leave Old Trafford in January.”
