Manchester United hope to be able to count on Antony as soon as possible. The Brazilian, accused of attacking his former partner and other women, will resume training at Carrington as the club announced on Friday via a press release. A return to the field which will undoubtedly do good for the Red Devils who have been disappointing since the start of the season. But if the former Ajax winger will be able to find the field again, The Daily Mail says that a crucial meeting between certain Mancunian leaders and the women’s team was held to clarify things and avoid any confusion.
Indeed, Manchester United certainly did not want to make the same mistake as with Mason Greenwood, who was about to return to the squad before it leaked and the media, as well as some people at the club, were outraged by this decision. So, director of football John Murtough and director of communications Ellie Norman reportedly held a meeting to explain the situation with players from the women’s team. The meeting reviewed the context and the facts alleged against Antony, in a transparent manner. Enough to facilitate his return without there being any confusion around the Brazilian. However, the right winger will have to continue to cooperate with investigators off the field so that the matter is resolved as quickly as possible.
