This United star's situation causes worry for club fans

Manchester United fans were delighted when they found out that 14 of their team players were called up to the World Cup by their national team. With the season halted on a high with a 2-1 win at Fulham, fans turned their attention to their players' exploit at the competition.

United fans thought it was over but he never gave up and will debut today

He is United's plan B and the fans are loving him already

Antony Santos's call-up was met with so much joy and excitement from both player and the United fans after his start to life in the Premier League following his record transfer from Ajax in the summer. He did part a huge part in sealing the move to United.

Antony did not start Brazil's first game at the World Cup as other experienced stars were selected upfront to kickstart their bid to win the tournament that all Brazilian dream of. But he got his chance in the second half as a substitute and was able to amplify Brazil's attack as they saw off the Serbs.

WHAT ARE THE CONCERNS ABOUT ANTONY?

According to new reports, Antony missed the latest Brazil training today and he becomes a doubt for Brazil's next game. The winger is reportedly ill and has been recuperating but might not be in the best position for a place in the squad. He could join Neymar and Danilo on the rule-out list for their next game against Switzerland.
