Manchester United winger Antony has been described as '£90m worth of c**p' in a brutal assessment by Simon Jordan.
The 23-year-old winger joined the Red Devils in an £85.5m deal from Ajax last summer.
Though there were glimpses of promise from the Brazilian international during his debut season, it was largely an underwhelming campaign as he scored just four Premier League goals in 25 appearances.
Jordan, speaking on talkSPORT, also slammed Erik ten Hag after the Dutchman aimed a dig at the club's ownership for their lack of spending in the January transfer window - despite spending £220m last summer.
The former Crystal Palace owner said: 'Okay, Ten Hag. You should have spent £170m in August and £50m in January would that have suited you better?

Antony -to date - has not lived up to the £85m price tag that the Red Devils forked out
Jordan also hit out at Erik ten Hag's criticism over United's lack of January spending - insisting the Dutchman bolted early by spending £220m last summer
'No you decided to fire your bolt early and spend £220m in the August (summer) window.
'What have you done with that? One of the huge parts of it was Antony.'
