Manchester United are hoping for progress on potential outgoings this week and one player could join Atletico Madrid this summer.<\/p>\n

Manchester United<\/a> are finally close to signing Bryan Mbeumo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mbeumo is set for a United medical<\/a> ahead of completing his long-awaited move from Brentford, with his imminent arrival serving as a major boost for Ruben Amorim<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Cameroonian forward is another key part of the attacking puzzle, after United snapped up Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

United now need to offload attackers in order to fund other incoming business, with progress expected this week.<\/p>\n

Marcus Rashford is set to join Barcelona<\/a>, while Juventus are moving for Jadon Sancho<\/a> as the England internationals near United exits.<\/p>\n

Alejandro Garnacho has been told to leave United<\/a> this summer, while Antony is expected to leave Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

United sent Antony<\/a> out on loan to Real Betis in January, hoping to see the Brazilian put himself in the shop window.<\/p>\n

What we witnessed is something few could have predicted, with Antony hitting nine goals and five assists in just 26 games for Betis.<\/p>\n

For comparison, Antony\u2019s United record stands at 12 goals and five assists, but across 70 more appearances.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old is available this summer, and while Betis continue to chase Antony\u2019s signature<\/a>, he could join a Spanish rival.<\/p>\n

iNews<\/a> report that Atletico Madrid are now emerging as the favourites to sign Antony, with Betis struggling to raise funds for a deal.<\/p>\n

Atletico showed an interest in Antony<\/a> earlier this year, and now appear to be ready to make a move for the wide man ahead of Betis.<\/p>\n

United are willing to cash in for around \u00a330million,\u00a0a price Real Betis have not yet offered, and their delay could see Atletico pounce.<\/p>\n

United need Antony cash<\/p>\n

Amorim has made it clear that Rashford, Sancho, Garnacho and Antony simply aren\u2019t part of his plans at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

All four can leave, but Rashford and Sancho currently look most likely to leave on loan.<\/p>\n

Perhaps that leads to a permanent deal down the line, but it won\u2019t provide a major cash boost this summer.<\/p>\n

Interest in Garnacho hasn\u2019t resulted in a firm cash bid, meaning Antony is now United\u2019s best chance of a cash injection.<\/p>\n

United are interested in Nicolas Jackson<\/a>, but sales are needed in order to fund a move for the Chelsea striker.<\/p>\n

Antony could now become the main player to raise funds, with United hoping Atletico make an offer very quickly.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manchester United are hoping for progress on potential outgoings this week and one player could join Atletico Madrid…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26300,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[14539,7794,403,99],"class_list":["post-26299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-antony","tag-ruben-amorim","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26299"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26299\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
