He posted the clip with the caption: “Sometimes you just gotta handle business… #YouCantSeeMe.”

While John Cena may be a fan of Antonio, West Ham is not where his allegiances lie.
The 44-year-old has previously been snapped wearing a Tottenham shirt and was presented with a jersey with the number 54 on it during Juande Ramos’ time as manager in 2008.
Antonio, meanwhile, has been on top form on social media this season.

His goal celebrations have been pretty special too.
