Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag has revealed that Antony may feature against Galatasaray in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.

The Brazil international recently returned to training on Saturday after a three week leave due to a police investigation in Brazil and England amid claims of domestic abuse.

However, Ten Hag has implied that he may rely on Antony against the Turks.

He said as quoted by Tribal Football: “He co-operated fully (with the police), he came out and he was not charged."

The 23-year-old star joined Manchester United in 2022 from Ajax in a €95 million deal and went on to score eight goals in 48 appearances across all competitions thus far.
