United fans are all in agreement over the Red Devils’ interest in Michael Olise

Manchester United are reportedly interested in Crystal Palace right-winger Michael Olise ahead of a move next summer, according to reports.

Jadon Sancho looks set to be on his way out of Manchester United in January and Antony continues to struggle to make an impact for the Red Devils as he has 0 goals or assists in the league this campaign.

As a result, a new right-winger could be targeted and it seems Crystal Palace forward Michael Olise looks to be the man who the Red Devils will target next summer under Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos.

The release clause in Olise’s contract which was £35 million last summer will be significantly higher due to the new contract he signed in the summer.

United fans react

With the recent report from the Evening Standard, the United fans have been reacting to this potential deal and perhaps unsurprisingly almost everyone is in agreement over the signing.

“This is exactly the type of player we need,” one fan said. Another agreed with him by saying: “This would be incredible. A third simply said: “Lovely news.”

The potential signing of Olise could well spell trouble for Antony and fans have also picked up on this.

“Get me anyone that will let me stop seeing Antony please”, another one fan said perhaps a tad harshly. Another asked: “What does this mean for Antony?”

A sixth simply said: “Goodbye Antony”, further underlining a frustration with the former Ajax winger.

The signing of Olise would surely spell trouble for Antony but you do wonder where the Brazilian could go if United did decide to sell him.

Six months to prove his worth

Since a deal to sign Olise will not be struck in the winter transfer window, the Brazilian arguably has six months to prove himself to Erik ten Hag otherwise the Red Devils will push for the French winger.

Olise has five goals and one assist in nine Premier League games for the Eagles this season and has scored some stunning goals along the way, the curled effort against Luton Town a particular stand out.

If Antony fails to produce the goods for the Red Devils in an attacking sense, whether it’s Olise or PSV forward Johan Bakayoko, a new right-winger has to be targeted.
