Antony was one of three Manchester United players named in Tite’s Brazil squad for the World Cup.
Antony remains a doubt for Manchester United
Antony missed the last two matches and I don’t think we’ll see him in action again before the World Cup.
United have two games remaining — against Aston Villa and Fulham — and it goes without saying that Erik ten Hag’s side are missing his presence on the right flank.
The sooner he returns after the World Cup the better.
So long as Marcus Rashford isn’t pushed out on the right, we should be looking at two positive results this season. He’s better up front or on the left wing.
