Jadon Sancho

One of the biggest hopes for the future of the 'Red Devils' although, for the moment, he has not performed as expected. At a very young age he left City's youth team for Borussia Dortmund where he did manage to have good seasons. That is why United bet on him when they paid 85 million in the 21/22 season.

Antony

Ajax paid just over fifteen million euros to bring him from São Paulo and, after two years, sold him for 95 million euros to Manchester United. It was a good deal for the Dutch. A few days ago he was harshly criticized by the English legend Ferdinand: "He has no strength in his legs. He couldn't even beat Thomas Partey in speed. He's a skilful winger, but from a skilful winger you need him to get past his marker."
