Manchester United manager Rúben Amorim has expressed his commitment to enhancing the performance of winger Antony. Amorim, who took charge of the club recently, emphasised the need for Antony to regain his confidence, particularly in one-on-one situations.
Antony, a 24-year-old Brazilian winger, joined Manchester United from Ajax, where he was known for his agility and flair on the field. However, Amorim noted that Antony currently lacks the self-assurance that characterised his time at the Dutch club.
Amorim stated, “He needs more confidence. I will help him to be a better player. If you remember the Antony in Ajax…” He further added that Antony must work diligently to improve his game, particularly in taking on defenders directly.
The manager’s comments come as part of his broader strategy to revitalise the team, with a focus on individual player development. Antony’s style of play, which includes quick dribbling and attacking prowess, is seen as a crucial element in Manchester United’s offensive strategy.
Amorim’s approach reflects his commitment to nurturing talent and building a cohesive team capable of competing at the highest levels.
