Anwar El Ghazi, a fellow countryman who is presently unemployed, was Erik ten Hag’s top choice to take Antony’s place, but MU supporters fiercely objected.

Anwar El Ghazi, a former Aston Villa winger who recently parted ways with PSV and is currently without a job, is a player that MU is thinking of signing in light of the uncertain futures of Antony and Jadon Sancho.

The current state of affairs at MU is extremely chaotic as Erik ten Hag deals with Antony’s suspension and uncertain return date while he waits for the police to finish their investigation into claims that he attacked his ex-girlfriend and two other women.

Meanwhile, their friendship deteriorated as a result of Jadon Sancho’s public “fight” with his Dutch teacher.

Originally two dreams for the Red Devils, Antony and Sancho together constitute a major threat with a combined value of 158 million pounds.

According to Daily Mail, Erik ten Hag plans to enlist his 28-year-old countryman El Ghazi to help with the matter at hand. The fact that he is a free agent means that MU can easily sign him.

Fans had a passionate response to the revelation that the MU captain had targeted El Ghazi. They worry that El Ghazi will disappoint as a “second Wout Weghorst.”

“Loaning Wout Weghorst is worse than buying El Ghazi. He doesn’t do anything but restrict other players’ playing time. Is MU kidding? One somebody said up.

The sentiment is even harsher: “I would rather play with 10 people than put El Ghazi in the starting lineup.”

Strong response: “El Ghazi will be the end of this club, worse than Wout Weghorst,”

Or “Wout Weghorst last season, El Ghazi this season,” etc.

On September 3, El Ghazi was spotted in the Emirates stadium watching MU 1-3 Arsenal in the fourth round of the Premier League.
