New Man Utd hero Antony pictured out on the town celebrating goal and Arsenal victory
Manchester United‘s £85.5million signing Antony made the dream start on Sunday after he scored in their 3-1 victory over Arsenal, and he celebrated the occasion by heading out after the game.
The Brazilian was pictured leaving Hawksmoor steakhouse with friends after enjoying a celebratory dinner, as he headed back to the Lowry hotel which is where he is currently staying. Antony only signed for United last week, and is currently staying in the famous Manchester hotel while a house is being sorted for United’s newest star.
And the 22-year-old is already getting to know the city, and was not shy of the cameras as he celebrated to photographers. And so he should, after making the perfect statement at Old Trafford.

United finally sealed a deal to sign Antony last week, and Ajax pocketed a mammoth £85.5m once agreeing to let him leave the club. The Brazilian was instantly included in the starting line-up to face Arsenal, and scored after just 35 minutes before erupting in celebration.
Antony is already proving to be a character, and is likely to become a fan favourite is he remains consistent. And he even played up to the camera as he was snapped clenching his fists and smiling in his United tracksuit after enjoying a steak dinner.
United became the first team to deny Arsenal maximum points this season, and Erik ten Hag appears to have turned things around after suffering defeat in their opening two Premier League matches. United have now won four games in a row, and the injection of cash to sign Brazilian duo Casemiro and Antony is clearly having an effect.

And Ten Hag was delighted with Antony’s first performance in United colours, and warned the rest of the league about the threat that the winger offers. “You can see all of his potential,” Ten Hag said about Antony after the game.
“He will be a threat in the Premier League. We were missing a player on the right wing. [Jadon] Sancho and [Marcus] Rashford can play there but they prefer the left so now we have the missing link who can play well on the right.
“We needed that on the right wing with his pace and dribbles and expression. It (the Premier League) is going be a challenge for him but we saw his potential. We have to keep pushing. I set high standards every day. Everyone has to bring it every day to Carrington.”
