BREAKING NEWS: Antony Santos Reveals Ruben Amorim’s “Unfair” Conditions for Manchester United Return.
In a dramatic twist to Manchester United’s summer plans, former United winger Antony Santos has expressed his frustration over manager Rúben Amorim’s conditions for his return to Old Trafford. The Brazilian star, who left United last season, has openly stated his desire to come back, but Amorim is reportedly laying down strict demands before allowing him to rejoin the squad.
Speaking to the media, Antony made it clear that he still considers Old Trafford his home and has no intention of turning his back on the club that gave him a platform in European football. However, he believes the conditions set by Amorim are unjust and unnecessary.
“Old Trafford is my home, and there’s no way I will bite the hands that fed me. I’m willing to return, but Amorim is giving me conditions now before I can wear the United shirt again, which is not fair,” Antony revealed.
What Are Amorim’s Conditions?
While the exact details of Amorim’s demands remain unclear, reports suggest the Portuguese coach has set fitness, tactical discipline, and attitude-related conditions before Antony can be reintegrated into the squad. Some sources claim that Amorim wants the winger to prove himself in pre-season training, adopt a more team-oriented playing style, and improve his defensive contributions—something he was heavily criticized for during his previous stint at United.
Additionally, there are suggestions that United’s new recruitment policy under Amorim prioritizes players with a high work rate and versatility, areas where Antony has been questioned in the past.
Fan Reactions: “Why Is Amorim Making Life Difficult for Us?”
The reaction from United fans has been mixed, with some backing Amorim’s strict approach while others feel Antony deserves another chance.
One frustrated supporter wrote on social media:
“WHY IS RUBEN AMORIM MAKING LIFE DIFFICULT FOR US? 💔🤦”
Another fan, however, defended Amorim’s stance, saying:
“If Antony really wants to play for United again, he should be ready to fight for his place. Amorim is doing what’s best for the team.”
What’s Next for Antony?
With United’s summer transfer window heating up, Antony’s return is still a possibility—but only if he meets Amorim’s conditions. The club is also linked with several new attacking signings, meaning the Brazilian’s chances of making a comeback could depend on whether United strengthen in his position.
For now, all eyes will be on Antony’s response—will he rise to the challenge or look for a move elsewhere?
