“Of course he is impatient. He wants to play and he's fighting to play.”

Erik ten Hag says Antony can “bounce back” in the battle the forward faces for a starting place in the Manchester United team.

The 24-year-old Brazil international, signed from Ajax for an initial £80.6million in 2022, has featured only once for United so far this season, as a late substitute in last month's 2-1 Premier League loss at Brighton.
