Manchester United winger Antony is being investigated by Greater Manchester Police over allegations he attacked his ex-girlfriend.
Gabriela Cavallin claims she was punched and headbutted by the Brazilian in a hotel in Manchester the day after United's 2-1 win over Manchester City on January 14.
In an interview with Brazilian website UOL, which included screenshots of messages, Cavallin claimed Antony threw a glass cup at her. This incident is alleged to have occurred on May 8, the day after United were beaten by West Ham.
The dates of the alleged incidents range from June 2022 to May 2023. She claims that the first attack came when she was pregnant and that the 23-year-old threatened to throw her out of a moving car.
