MANCHESTER UNITED star Antony has shared footage of his new tattoos – which includes the word “shhh…” inked along his finger.
The exciting winger is already making a name for himself at Old Trafford after his summer move to Manchester.
He cost United £85.5m from Ajax but he is already proving his worth on the pitch with three Premier League goals.
The Brazilian is also showing he has a flair for the dramatic off-the-pitch as he shows off his range of new tattoos.
Antony’s Instagram story shows him getting inked up only days after his call-up to Brazil’s World Cup squad.
The star lies shirtless as a tattooist adds to the already fine collection of art along his arms.
In a second post he then shows off his new designs.
The most eye-catching is the word “shhh…”, which he had inked down the side of his forefinger.
It will add even more panache to any potential Antony celebration if he raises his finger to his lips after scoring.
He also had the year “2014” and a fist drawn in striking purple ink on the back of his left arm.

And Antony had “123…” along the length of his right knuckle and the word “iluminado” along his neck, which translates as “illuminated” in English.
The 22-year-old previously explained to Manchester United’s website the reason behind his tattoos and particularly the picture of the lion on one of his arms.
He said: “I’ve got this one together with my brother, which says ‘only those from the same place know what I’ve been through.
“This one on my neck is a chain pendant and the full sleeve has meaning.”
He added in the September interview that he planned to get even more ink in the future.
Antony has missed United’s last few games with injury but will be hoping to return for their final pre-World Cup game away at Fulham on Sunday.
