Antony spoke warmly about Ronaldo and the support he received from the Portuguese star during their time together at United.
“Cristiano Ronaldo is an incredible person, very funny and polite,” he admitted. “He told me that the day I stop feeling butterflies in my stomach, I should be careful. Before my debut against Arsenal, he reassured me by telling me to take my first touches calmly and that I already knew how to do the rest.”
The Brazilian also explained why he chose to join the Red Devils, saying: “I went to Manchester United because of Erik ten Hag, who kept sending me messages saying he wanted me there.”
