page name[edit]

Why this article name is consisted only from the first name of a person. This seems as a very strange way of presenting a person name. Especially, because there are so many other footballers with this first name. So the page title 'Anthony (footballer)' does not actually distinguish this player from all other with the same fisrt name. Please chage this to 'Antony Matheus dos Santos'. 77.156.242.132 (talk) 09:33, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Antony (footballer, born 2000) → Antony Santos (footballer): Why can’t we include his surname? I’ve seen him be referred to as Anthony Santos since he’s joined Manchester United.

It's common for Brazilian footballers who are known by their first name to just have that as the title of the wiki and then their full name in the introduction. See Fred (footballer, born 1993) Rafael (footballer, born 1990) Neymar Alisson. It is the case for half of the most recent Brazil squad Brazil national football team, as well as many retired Brazilian players. Antony is generally called Antony in the press https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11667/12685793/antony-manchester-united-sign-brazil-winger-from-ajax-for-86m https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62718027.

Oppose - he is commonly known as just 'Antony', not Antony Santos, and this is in accordance with Wikipedia's practice for many Brazilian footballers (as indicated above). No change necessary. LenF54 (talk) 16:20, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Antony is considered as one of the best wingers in the world. His pace and ability to curl the ball in the net is appreciated by fans and pundits around the world. He has been the most essential player for Manchester United since he signed for them in the summer transfer window of 2022. Many consider him as the greatest signing in the history of the Mancunian Club. 2409:40C0:11B8:875A:F995:5A8E:CF0A:6923 (talk) 16:10, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
