The Eredivisie giants have reportedly been contacted by Liverpool FC about a transfer for Antony, according to the same publication, as the Merseyside club looks to add a fourth player this summer.

Last season, Antony featured in  23 games in the Dutch top division and contributed four assists and eight goals.

After scoring six goals in 52 games across all competitions for Sao Paulo in his native Brazil, the 22-year-old moved to Ajax in an £18.2 million transfer in 2020.
