Antony – permanent

Manchester United have confirmed Antony has been sold to La Liga side Real Betis.

Antony spent time on loan at Real Betis last season and quickly became a fan favourite. He was determined to re-sign there, turning down interest from Turkey and the Saudi Pro League.

Manchester United receive a total of £21.6 million, a huge loss on the figure paid for him.

United also have a 50 per cent sell-on clause, opening up the possibility of a financial boost later down the line.

Rasmus Hojlund to Napoli – loan

Rasmus Hojlund has been sent out on loan to Napoli, answering the Italian club’s SOS following Romelu Lukaku’s injury.

Manchester United receive £5.2 million in an up front loan fee, and there is an option to buy at £38 million if Napoli qualify for the Champions League.

Harry Amass – loan

Promising left-back Harry Amass joins the growing list of players out on loan, signing with Sheffield Wednesday for the season.

It is a good opportunity for Amass, 18, to play first team football at a high level, after making his Manchester United debut last season.

The former Watford talent had fallen down the pecking order following the arrival of Diego Leon.

More exits are expected, with Manchester United set to confirm the exit of Jadon Sancho on loan to Aston Villa.
