Manchester City are interested in signing Ajax attacker Antony next summer, according to a report.

Manchester City are reportedly ready to battle Real Madrid for the signature of Ajax attacker Antony during next summer's transfer window.

The 21-year-old has scored 11 goals and registered 12 assists in 51 appearances for Ajax since making the move from Sao Paulo in July 2020.

A recent report claimed that Real Madrid are interested in bringing the Brazilian to the Bernabeu in 2022, having been impressed with his development since arriving in European football.

According to El Nacional, there is also genuine interest from Man City, with the Citizens ready to explore the possibility of moving for the attacker in 2022.

The report claims that Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund have also expressed a desire to sign the Brazilian.

Antony, who still has four years left to run on his contract in Amsterdam, has scored once and provided two assists in five appearances for Ajax this term.
