The transfer has been in the works for months and was finally confirmed on Saturday. Ajax will pay Sao Paulo an initial €15,750,000 with that fee potentially rising to € 21,750,000 through add-ons.
If the add ons are paid then Antony is officially Ajax’s record signing, surpassing the €16.25 million paid for Miralem Sulejmani. Daley Blind’s eventual fee could also be €20.5 million.
The 19-year-old made his first-team debut for Sao Paulo in 2018 and has made 33 appearances for the club, scoring three goals.
