Ajax winger Antony has addressed his future at the Amsterdam club amid interest from Manchester United this summer.
The Brazilian scored on the opening weekend of the Eredivisie season as Ajax thrashed FC Groningen 6-1 at the Johan Cruyff Arena. However, reports from the Netherlands on Friday suggested that the 22-year-old did not take part in training despite being at the club's training complex
De Telegraaf also reported that Ajax had rejected an €80m bid from United on Thursday and that it was unclear whether or not his absence was down to an injury or his unhappiness at seeing a move being rejected. In an interview with De Telegraaf, Antony addressed the speculation regarding his future.

When asked if he could offer Ajax fans assurances that he would be staying, he replied: "No, to be perfectly honest, I can't. What I can say is that I want to come to the right decision with my family, business partners and Ajax, which is good for everyone.
"In the end, God determines my future. I am very happy at Ajax, I have a contract until the summer of 2025 and I will give everything for this beautiful club for every second.
"I wear the shirt with pride and from day one I feel at home. If we all decide that I will stay here, then I know that this is the best thing for me and the club.
"It’s not like I have to leave. Now I am focusing on playing football and have put all other matters in the hands of my agents and my brother. They will advise me on what is best."
