Gabriela Cavallin has urged Manchester United to “remove” Antony from the squad following accusations of domestic violence by her and two other women.
The Brazil winger’s ex-girlfriend has criticised United for their slow response to allegations that Antony had attacked her on various occasions between June 2022 and May 2023, urging them to suspend the winger from playing.
In a recent interview with the Brazilian website UOL, the DJ and model claimed that her former partner had headbutted her, thrown a glass at her, and threatened to push her out of a moving vehicle, all on separate occasions. Antony has denied all of the accusations, pleading his innocence in a recent TV interview.

Following this news, two other women – Rayssa de Freitas and Ingrid Lana – have come forward with assault accusations against Anthony. As a result, police investigations have been launched by both Greater Manchester Police and Sao Paulo Police.
Now, Cavallin has called for United to ban the 23-year-old from playing while the police investigated the claims, in an interview with The Sun.
Antony needs to be taken off the pitch,” said Cavallin. “It’s disappointing he’s still allowed to play while there’s an investigation. I am absolutely destroyed by the whole process. How can life go on as normal for him? They can’t just know what they know now and not do anything. He needs to be removed
