Brazilian media reported on Monday that the court in São Paulo is looking into allegations of domestic violence against the Manchester United player, Antony’s ex-girlfriend, Gabriela Cavallin.
To clarify up any confusion, the winger responded to the claims with a formal statement.
The statement read, “Out of respect for my fans, friends and family I feel obligated to speak publicly about the false accusations I have been a victim of.
“From the beginning I have handled this issue seriously and with respect, providing the due clarifications to the police authority. The police inquest is under cover of justice, and therefore I cannot make its content public.
“However, I can say with confidence that the accusations are false and that the evidence already produced and more to be produced show that I am innocent of the accusations made.
“My relationship with Ms. Gabriela was tumultuous, with verbal offenses from both sides, but I never practiced any physical aggression.
“Every time, whether in testimony or in interview, she presents a different version of the accusations.
“Thus, I come to deny the accusations made and inform that I remain at the full disposal of the Brazilian authorities to clarify what is needed.
“I trust the ongoing police investigations will reveal the truth about my innocence”.
