Even with the charges of domestic violence hanging over his head, ANTONY will be available for Manchester United’s Champions League match against Galatasaray.
The Brazil international was questioned by Greater Manchester Police for five hours last week after being accused of physically assaulting his ex-girlfriend.
The £85 million signing was given time off to deal with the claims, which he strongly denies, but he went back to training on Sunday.
And Erik ten Hag, the manager of the Red Devils, has stated that he will be considered for the game against the Turkish champions tomorrow.
The Dutchman told the press before the game, “Antony will be taken into account, but yesterday was his first day back in team training.”
“We’re going to make a choice after our last training.”
Antony, who is 23 years old, hasn’t played since last month, when United lost 3-1 to Arsenal.
The ex-girlfriend of the man who used to play for Ajax has accused him of assault, saying that he hit her while she was pregnant with his child.
When Cavallin heard that Antony was going back to training, she sent a message through her lawyers.
This is what it said: “Gabriela Cavallin’s lawyers say that the Manchester Police and the Brazilian Police are still looking into the crimes the player committed.”
The reason we think he will soon be sent to court is so that he can be tried.”It’s clear to us that false information would be spread so that the team would bring him back to training.”Antony has rejected the claims many times since they were made public in June.
“Out of respect for my fans, friends, and family, I feel obliged to speak out publicly about the false accusations that I have been the victim of,” he wrote on Instagram.”From the start, I took this matter seriously and with respect, giving the police all the information they needed.””The investigation is protected by court orders, so I can’t talk about what it found in public.””However, I can calmly say that the accusations are false and that the evidence we have now and the evidence we will have in the future show that I am innocent.”
Manchester United said last week that they were against all “acts of violence and abuse” in a statement about the ongoing review.It also said, “Antony has cooperated with police investigations in both Brazil and the UK since the first accusations were made in June.””And he keeps doing that.”Antony’s employer, Manchester United, has decided that he will start training again at Carrington and be ready to be picked while police investigations continue.”
“This will be looked at again when more information about the case comes in.””As a club, we believe that violence and abuse are wrong.””We know how important it is to keep everyone involved in this safe, and we know how these allegations affect people who have been abused.”
