Former Manchester United winger Anthony Elanga has opened up on his relationship with Antony.

The Brazilian came into the club at the start of last season, with Elanga already established as a first team player.

However, Antony soon became the preferred starter, given he was a signing of newly arrived manager Erik ten Hag.

"Antony is a great player and a beautiful person. We had a lot of contact when I was at United, and we still talk sometimes now," Elanga, who left a year later for Nottingham Forest, explained to SoccerNews.nl.

"I am confident that he will score a lot of goals there. I could already see that during the training sessions."

He added: "I believe in God, and he told me to go to Nottingham, and Antony is still at United. But he will really be successful there."
