Manchester United star Antony has splashed out on a brand new Lamborghini to celebrate his inclusion in Brazil’s World Cup squad.
This month, Brazil boss Tite confirmed his 26-man squad that would be travelling to Qatar – which included the winger. It’ll be his first involvement in a World Cup for the Selecao.
And to mark the occasion the former Ajax star treated himself to a new fresh set of wheels, which was captured on a post on social media this week.

In an Instagram post, Antony can be seen standing beside the car and appears in good spirits after making the purchase.
The post also included a video of the car being – carefully – unloaded to the United star’s house in Cheshire.
In the final picture, Antony is standing outside his house, with the car now sat in his driveway, as he poses with Riccardo Leighton – the man who organised the purchase.
Leighton was also given a signed Manchester United shirt by the Brazilian star, as a token of appreciation for sourcing the vehicle.
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae is valued at £337,000.

Last month he shared the heartwarming moment that he – and his family – found out that he’d been included in the squad.
The former Ajax star shared a video on social media sat with his family – all dressed in Manchester United tops though Antony is in a Brazil shirt – awaiting the announcement.
When his name is read out, his family burst into celebration and hug. The United No 21 has a strong embrace and becomes emotional as he comes to terms he’ll be featuring in his first World Cup.
The winger only made his national debut in the World Cup qualifiers in October last year so it’ll be his first major competition where he’ll be representing his country.

Antony will be hoping he can help his side to success in Qatar in his first major tournament with the Selecao.
The winger was omitted from the squad last year for their Copa America campaign which saw them fall at the final hurdle. They were beaten 1-0 by Argentina in the final.
Tite’s side will face Serbia on Thursday in their World Cup opener before later taking on Switzerland and Cameroon.
