Antony was shown the exit door at Old Trafford following a dismal spell with the Red Devils.

The 24-year-old needed just 10 minutes to find a way past Celta Vigo on Saturday afternoon.
Antony received a loose ball in the box, opening up his body and bending a smart finish past Vicente Guaita.
It was Antony's first goal in any competitive game since a strike against Barnsley in the Carabao Cup back in September.
On that occasion, the tricky winger fired home in a 7-0 rout of the League One side.
