Erik ten Hag says Antony is a major doubt to face Manchester City in the FA Cup Final.
Manchester United have been hit by a setback for Antony ahead of the FA Cup final, with Erik ten Hag saying it is "unlikely" the winger will be fit to face Manchester City.
The 23-year-old winger went down in agony last Thursday during the first half of the penultimate Premier League game of the season against Chelsea.
Antony left on a stretcher and Ten Hag feared a "serious" injury, only to allay concerns three days later by saying the "first assessment is not too bad" and that he had a "good opportunity" to face City.
But this week has not gone as well as expected and the Brazil international now looks set to miss the first ever all-Manchester FA Cup final.
"Unlikely (he will be fit)," he said. "Dos Santos (Antony) still has a chance but it’s a really small chance.
"He didn’t make the progress, so he still has a chance but unlikely he is available."
Lisandro Martinez, Marcel Sabitzer, Anthony Martial and Donny van de Beek have also been ruled out of the final .
Manchester United will face crosstown rivals Manchester City in the 2023 Emirates FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium on Saturday 3rd of June at pm.
