Manchester United have a lot on their plate right now, as they are currently dealing with a player who has been accused of domestic violence. Antony has been facing allegations from his ex-girlfriend, Gabriella Cavallini, and two other women. Cavallini has also criticized Manchester United, saying that Antony should be suspended and must be given the “Mason Greenwood” treatment.
This led to Antony himself taking time off the field until the whole matter was resolved. Antony has been very vocal about these allegations and has denied multiple times any kind of physical ab*se. This story takes a new turn as one of those three women has dropped her case against the winger.
The report that was made to the Sao Paulo Civil Police has been retracted in full. Of the three women, it was law student Rayssa de Freitas. Reportedly, both women in the car, de Freitas and Mallu Ohana, have accused each other of assault, and de Freitas left the car as it hit a traffic light. Though she needed medical attention as per the previous report, Antony’s involvement in the case now looks in doubt.

Manchester United had no idea of this incident until it was recently picked up, despite it taking place only a few weeks ago with the big-money move of Antony from Ajax to England.
Who are the three women who have accused Antony of violent behavior?
Reportedly, the accusations have primarily started coming from his ex-partner Gabriella Cavallin who has accused Antony of physical abuse on 4 separate occasions. She also accused the club Manchester United to try and cover up the situation by sending support officer Daniele Bertoli to their hotel.

He has been accused of head-butting her, throwing her aggressively on the bed, and falling on top of her. He also punched her and even threatened to kill her. Antony also reportedly took her passport. One day Antony even forced her out of the nightclub and pushed her into the car, repeatedly assaulting her, which caused her miscarriage. He even threatened to throw her out of the moving car at high speed.
The next report came from the one who had just withdrawn her case. Rayssa de Freitas, a law student told the publication Extra that she required hospital treatment after getting assaulted in a Land Rover by Antony and Mallu Ohana after they left the nightclub in Sao Paolo in May 2022.
So, according to The Telegraph Rayssa de Freitas, one of the 3 women to accuse Antony of physical assault has dropped the case.
The funny is that after she lies to us to get Antony into trouble, she will be allowed to go freely without any legal implications. Unfair!!! 💔#MUFC pic.twitter.com/VgDlZ2SYKg

Moreover, Ingrid Lana, a 33-year-old banker, said in an interview with Record TV that Antony wanted to have s*x with her and behaved aggressively. The incident took place in October 2022, when she went on a trip to England and was invited to the player’s house. She said that Antony wanted to have a relationship with her and also pushed her, which resulted in her head getting hit.
