Antony revealed that there is a Manchester United player whom he considers ‘more than just a friend,’ while expressing gratitude to his teammates for ‘standing by him every day’ during difficult times at Old Trafford.
Antony hasn’t had a great time at Man United, but the winger says one teammate has helped him through it all.
The Brazilian was bought by United for £86 million in the summer of 2022, but after a good start, he has not lived up to the hype.
Fans say that, given how much he cost, the 24-year-old should be in the running for the worst Premier League deal of all time because he has only scored two goals and set up one other in 30 games this season.
‘I’m very thankful to God and a friend I talk to a lot,’ he told United’s website.
Diego Dalot is more than just a friend; he helps me out at the club every day. One thing we always say to each other is, “The patient guy can’t be beat.”
“We talk about it all the time.” For that reason, I’m thankful for his wisdom and the time we spent talking. He has been very helpful to me.
Antony scored his second goal of the season in the exciting 4-3 FA Cup win over Liverpool. Things may be looking up for him now.
Early in extra time, the forward scored to tie the game, and his team went on to win with almost the last kick of the game.
