Atletico Madrid eye double swoop for Manchester United duo in summer rebuild | OneFootball

Manchester United are bracing for a seismic summer shake-up, and it looks like Ruben Amorim’s rebuild might begin with a fire sale.

With the Red Devils languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table and only six games left to play, major changes are not just expected — they’re necessary.

Two of United’s most high-profile attackers are now reportedly on Atletico Madrid’s radar as the Spanish giants eye a double swoop.

Atletico Madrid eye double swoop for Manchester United duo in summer rebuild

According to TBR Football, Antony and Alejandro Garnacho are both being targeted by Atletico Madrid, with Diego Simeone looking to pounce on United’s attacking uncertainty.

Antony, who cost United a massive £82 million when he arrived from Ajax in 2022, has been on loan at Real Betis this season and has shown flickers of promise again — tallying four goals and four assists in 13 appearances.

But his struggles at Old Trafford have left Amorim unconvinced. A permanent exit looks more like a when than an if.

Garnacho, meanwhile, is a player Atletico know well. The Argentine winger began his career in Atleti’s academy before moving to Manchester in 2020. Now, the 19-year-old could be heading back to where it all began.

Alongside Antony and Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund and Andre Onana are also facing uncertain futures, with Amorim reportedly prepared to listen to offers for both after disappointing seasons.

Selling underperforming assets like Antony and Garnacho would not only give these young attackers a chance to reset their careers — it would also provide a vital injection of cash for Amorim’s summer transfer war chest.

United are reportedly willing to negotiate for Garnacho, having lowered their previous valuation. With Atletico circling, this could become one of the more dramatic sagas of the window.
