Manchester United forward Antony, 23, has returned to the UK from Sao Paulo to address allegations made by his ex-girlfriend, Gabriela Cavallin. Cavallin accused Antony of domestic violence, threats, and causing bodily injury during their year-long relationship. The Brazilian player vehemently denies these allegations.
The allegations came to light recently, prompting Manchester United to acknowledge them and allowing the Brazilian player to extend his stay in Brazil after the international break. Antony was spotted at Sao Paulo airport, en route to Spain, where he is expected to meet with the police regarding the allegations.
In a statement, Antony said, “I have agreed with Manchester United to take a period of absence while I address the allegations made against me. This was a mutual decision to avoid distraction to my team-mates and unnecessary controversy for the club. I want to reiterate my innocence of the things I have been accused of, and I will fully cooperate with the police to help them reach the truth. I look forward to returning to play as soon as possible.”
The allegations have been under investigation by police in both Sao Paulo and Greater Manchester, with Cavallin asserting that a punch to the chest caused damage to a breast implant.
