Instead of Antony Raphinha Dias could have ended up at Manchester United in 2022.
The Athletic reports that ahead of the summer transfer window deadline manager Erik ten Hag requested the signing of Antony and the Brazilian was eventually purchased from Ajax for €100 million including bonuses.
However Manchester United scouts also pushed for signing the Ajax player rather than Raphinha from Leeds that summer. As a result Raphinha ended up at Barcelona.
This season Antony has played 4 games in the Premier League without registering any goal contributions while Raphinha has made 19 appearances in La Liga scoring 11 goals.
