Manchester United legends Paul Scholes and Rio Ferdinand believe their former team's summer pursuit of Ajax winger Antony is dragging on because of over-inflated transfer fees, with clubs having to 'pay over the odds for players'.
Speaking pre-match on BT Sport ahead of United's Premier League visit to Southampton on Saturday, Scholes, Ferdinand, and Peter Crouch gave their verdict on the Brazilian.
Antony is desperate to secure a move to Old Trafford but has been hampered in his efforts by Ajax's refusal to accept United's proposed fee, despite bidding £76.
