Rivaldo believes Antony should leave the Premier League.
The 2002 World Cup winner thinks a move away from Manchester United, and England as a whole, could help Antony regain his place in the Brazil side ahead of the next World Cup.
Rivaldo cited United's challenging campaign, which has seen few of their players have a good season amid off-field turmoil and an ownership change. The 52-year-old thinks his younger compatriot needs to depart from the situation and seek greener pastures elsewhere.
Speaking to Betfair, Rivaldo suggested Antony move to a club in Europe to try to regain the form that saw him included in Brazil's 2022 World Cup squad.
"I still say Manchester United winger Antony is a great player," Rivaldo said. "He's already played in a World Cup for Brazil and he's still young with plenty of football to play.
"He's currently at a club that's been going through difficult times for a while now, so in my opinion leaving England could be good for him.
"Moving to a side in Spain, Germany or Italy could be fundamental for his progression now. With his skills and the football that he can play, I think that he would fit very well into any big team in Spain, for example.
"It could be good for him to go to a club where he can return to playing regularly and aim to get back into the Brazilian team. Who knows, maybe in 2026 he can play in another World Cup."
