After the allegations of domestic abuse were made by three women, Antony hasn’t been arrested or charged in either Brazil or the United Kingdom.

United put Antony on a paid leave earlier this month so that he could focus on clearing his name after he refused allegations of assault by three women.

Antony, 23, was removed from the Brazil’s squad set to participate in the 2026 World Cup. The decision came after the assault allegations made by his former girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin.

Selecao will play Bolivia in their opening qualifying match on Friday night in Belem, Para. The match between Brazil and Peru is slated to be played in Lima, the following week.

Antony, who joined United for £85 million last summer, denied the allegations and said he had since spoken to the police, who are looking into the reports.

Antony joined Manchester United from Ajax last summer for £85 million and had a decent 2022-23 season.

The 22-year-old termed the incident as a ‘shock’ and expressed gratitude towards the God for ‘putting it behind now.’
