Manchester United have been told to sell winger Antony as soon as possible after his struggles this season. 

The Brazilian winger has failed to register a goal or an assist in the Premier League this campaign, despite making 22 appearances.

Red Devils coach Erik ten Hag continues to keep faith in the 23-year-old, but Red Devils legend Dwight Yorke feels he needs to be moved in the near future.

"I think back to players who succeeded at Man United, and all of them were eager to write their names into the history of the club and they wanted to be a part of the setup," Yorke told Footy Accumulators.

"I'm not sure if Man United players understand that these days. I don't think it's a surprise that Kevin De Bruyne came back and delivered an assist within twenty minutes. I'm also not surprised that we're still talking about Antony and what he brings because he cost £85million.

"There are always going to be question marks when you sign a player for that much, especially when they're playing for a club like Man United. "

'"Players like Antony will understand they're not performing as they should. It's tough for him and I feel for him, but it's both his and the club's responsibility if things don't work out. "

"The club has to move these players on as quickly as possible or else they'll find themselves in the same position every year - having average players signed to long contracts and not contributing what we expect of them."
