Antony, the Manchester United winger, has splashed out on a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae, costing £337,000, to celebrate his selection for Brazil’s World Cup squad. This marks his first time being called up for the Seleção, as the 26-man roster for the tournament in Qatar was announced by head coach Tite.

In a recent Instagram post, Antony proudly stood next to his new luxury car, looking satisfied with his purchase. The post also featured a video showing the Lamborghini being carefully delivered to his home in Cheshire.

In a heartwarming gesture, Antony presented Ricardo Leighton, who helped arrange the purchase, with a signed Manchester United shirt as a thank-you for his assistance.

Last month, Antony shared a touching video capturing the moment he and his family learned of his World Cup selection. While his family wore Manchester United shirts, he donned a Brazil jersey. When his name was called, the family erupted in joy, embracing each other, while Antony teared up at the news of his first World Cup appearance.

Antony’s debut for Brazil came during the World Cup qualifiers in October of last year, but this tournament will be his first major international competition. The young star’s excitement and celebration reflect the significance of this milestone in his career.
