Manchester United has reportedly blocked winger Antony’s attempt to secure a loan move to Turkey according to the Daily Mail.

The Brazilian player, who joined United for a significant fee in 2022, has struggled for playing time this season.

Despite his potential, Antony has found it difficult to break into the starting lineup and has been linked with a move away from the club.

While there was speculation that Antony could join a Turkish club with Fenerbahce and Galatasaray being linked, Manchester United has made it clear that they are not willing to let him go on loan.

The club believes that Antony still has a role to play at Old Trafford and wants to give him the opportunity to prove himself.

With the transfer window closing soon, Antony’s options for a move away from United are limited.

He will need to focus on impressing Erik ten Hag and fighting for a place in the starting lineup.

Manchester United has been active in the transfer market this summer, bringing in players like Rasmus Højlund and Sofyan Amrabat.

The competition for places in the squad is intense, and Antony will need to perform at a high level to secure regular playing time.

The Turkish transfer market is still open until September 13 so Super Lig clubs can still make a move.
