Brazilian footballer Antony completed a big money move from Ajax to Manchester United in 2022. He was also part of the Selecao squad in the FIFA World Cup 2023.  The Manchester United footballer recently faced allegations of domestic violence from his ex-wife, a well-known DJ and influencer named Gabriela Cavallin. Cavallin previously lodged a complaint about violence faced from Antony in Brazil back in June and later added her experienced instances of aggression and received threats while residing in Manchester too. Now in an interview, she has come up with videos and photographs with evidence of Antony's brutal attack on her. Jadon Sancho Labels Himself ‘Scapegoat’ in Response to Manchester United Manager Erik ten Hag’s Remarks After Premier League 2023-24 Loss to Arsenal.

n interview with Brazilian website UOL published on Monday, Cavallin said the footballer threw a glass at her, and in trying to defend herself she cut her finger to the bone. Cavallin filed a police complaint against Antony in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in June 2023. According to the UOL report, she has also filed a complaint against the player to Greater Manchester Police.

In the Interview she said, “I stayed silent until the moment so that nothing could interfere with the investigation process, but during all those days my family and I suffered in silence. Despite being born and raised in a very needy community, I had never been through a situation similar to this, in which a false assault charge resulted in a preliminary and unfair public judgement on the part of some. After the closure of the investigation my innocence will be proven. [I am] certain that justice will prevail and the damage initially caused to my image will be in the past. Thank you to the countless messages of support at this very difficult time.” Manchester United Decides to Part Ways With Mason Greenwood, England Footballer to Leave Old Trafford Following Investigation Report.

Antony released a statement in late June denying the accusations made against him. "After submitting my statement at the police station where investigation involving my name is being conducted, I wanted to speak for the first time since I was falsely accused of assault," he wrote on Instagram. Currently Antony is being investigated by the Sao Paulo court for domestic violence against his ex-wife and definitely the recently revealed photoes and videos are going to play a big part in it.
