Antony Reflects on Time with Ronaldo at Manchester United

Antony, the former Manchester United winger, opened up about his six-month relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo during their time together at Manchester United. He described Ronaldo as one of the greatest players ever, highlighting the significant insights gained from their interactions.

Antony recounted moments spent with Ronaldo, including discussions in the sauna that extended beyond football, where he was astonished by Ronaldo's physique at nearly 40 years old. He felt embarrassed by Ronaldo's dedication and care, acknowledging Ronaldo as a role model.

During his time at Manchester United, Antony made 96 appearances, scoring only 12 goals and providing five assists, which he deemed disappointing given his £86 million transfer fee. In contrast, he has rejuvenated his career at Real Betis, scoring 22 goals in 67 matches and assisting 14 times.
