Manchester United have said they take \u201cseriously\u201d the allegations that Brazilian winger Antony attacked his ex-girlfriend, but the club have not confirmed whether an internal investigation will now take place.<\/p>\n

Brazil have dropped the 23-year-old from their upcoming international fixtures, but United have not clarified whether he remains in contention for club selection.<\/p>\n

\u201cManchester United acknowledges the allegations made against Antony and notes that the Police are conducting enquiries,\u201d a statement read. \u201cPending further information, the club will be making no further comments. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs a club we are taking this matter seriously, with consideration of the impact of these allegations and subsequent reporting will have on survivors\u00a0of\u00a0abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n

In an interview with Brazilian website UOL \u2013 which also published photographs and screenshots of messages between the pair \u2013 Gabriela Cavallin claims she was attacked by Antony \u201cwith a headbutt\u201d in a Manchester hotel room on 15 January, leaving her with a cut head which needed treatment from a doctor.<\/p>\n

Cavallin, a social media influencer, also alleges she was punched in the chest by Antony, which she claims caused damage to a silicone breast implant which required corrective surgery back in Brazil.<\/p>\n

Another alleged incident is claimed to have taken place at a house on 8 May, with Cavallin saying she suffered a cut finger while trying to protect herself, accusing Brazil international Antony of throwing a glass cup towards her as well as then taking her passport.<\/p>\n

Cavallin is said to have filed a report to the Sao Paulo Civil Police concerning allegations of physical and verbal abuse by Antony while on holiday in Brazil during June 2022, when she was pregnant, as well as making a separate complaint to Greater Manchester Police (GMP). <\/p>\n

Writing on Instagram, Antony, who signed for United from Ajax in an \u00a385.5m deal in September 2022, protested his innocence in response to what he called \u201cfalse accusations\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cOut of respect for my fans, friends and family, I feel obliged to speak out publicly about the false accusations I have been the victim of,\u201d Antony said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the beginning I have treated this matter with seriousness and respect, providing the necessary clarifications before the police authority. The police investigation is under judicial secrecy, and therefore I cannot make its contents public. However, I can calmly state that the accusations are false and that the evidence already produced and the other evidence that will be produced demonstrate that I am innocent of the accusations made.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy relationship with Gabriela was tumultuous, with verbal insults from both sides, but I never committed any physical aggression. At each moment, whether in testimony or in an interview, she presents a different version of the accusations.<\/p>\n

\u201cTherefore, I come to vehemently deny the accusations made and inform you that I remain at the entire disposal of the Brazilian authorities to clarify whatever is necessary. I trust that the ongoing police investigations will demonstrate the truth about my innocence.\u201d<\/p>\n
