Mechelen are yet to release any official information on the extent of the injury.

They will be hoping it’s not a serious injury for Antonio who has been a vital cog in their team of late, scoring crucial goals for the Yellow Red.

Antonio scored the winner in their 2-1 victory over Gent three weeks ago.

The goal was his first for the senior team following his graduation from Mechelen’s U-21s.

He went on to find the net again when Mechelen drew 2-2 with Anderlecht a fortnight ago.

The injury setback comes at a crucial moment for Antonio who has been enjoying his form with the first team.

He has consistently displayed his pace and talent, earning himself a place in the starting line up for the Besnik Hasi coached side.
