According to the Italian publication Calciomercato, Antony will be at the center of a significant squabble during the summer transfer window. Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Paris Saint-Germain are all interested in signing Ajax's 22-year-old Brazilian international ahead of the 2022/23 season.
The 22-year-old has had a strong 2021/22 season so far, scoring 12 goals and assisting ten times in 33 appearances for Ajax across all competitions. Antony's heroics have not gone unnoticed, with some of the world's most prestigious teams lined up to sign him away from Ajax during the summer transfer season. Three of his potential suitors are Barcelona, Real Madrid, and PSG
Barcelona will most likely invest in a wide attacker during the summer transfer window since Ousmane Dembele's future at Camp Nou remains unknown due to a contract dispute with the Blaugrana. Furthermore, when Adama Traore's loan arrangement ends at the conclusion of the season, he is not certain to join Barcelona on a permanent basis
Antony is thus a potential target for Barcelona, though the Brazilian international will most likely be a backup option if Raphinha cannot be found. Real Madrid is anticipated to make significant changes during the summer transfer window, with Eden Hazard and Gareth Bale certain to leave the Santiago Bernabeu. At the same time, Marco Asensio's future at the Spanish club remains unknown.
While Kylian Mbappe is anticipated to join Real Madrid on a free transfer from PSG, Antony might be an alternative worth considering. Meanwhile, PSG's interest in the 22-year-old is likely motivated by the lingering uncertainty around Mbappe's future, who is expected to join Real Madrid on a Bosman transfer.
For now, it looks like the race to sign Antony from Ajax in the summer transfer window has heated up further. It will be interesting to see if any of Real Madrid, Barcelona and PSG can land the 22-year-old Brazilian international or if some other club swoops him away from the Dutch outfit instead.
