A new Antonio is born

OK so we don’t usually do baby pictures here at ClaretandHugh but we just wanted to add our congratulations to Hammer Michail Antonio and his family on the birth of his baby daughter.

Antonio was given special permission not to travel with the first team to US cities of Seattle and North Carolina as his wife was due to give birth. The 26-year-old has instead been training at Chadwell Heath within a quick dash of the hospital.

The proud father posted on his Instagram account last night “I’ll like to introduce my little princess to the world”

Last week  the winger committed his long-term future to the club with a new four-year contract taking him up to 2020. The former Nottingham Forest player told WHUFC.com last week  “Champions League football and being called up by England. Those are my two targets now”
