Antony is cut from the national team because of assault accusations

The case involving the attacker Antony had consequences in his summons to the Brazilian Team. Called by coach Fernando Diniz for the games with Bolivia and Peru, for the World Cup Qualifiers, the Manchester United player ended up being cut by the coaching staff this Monday (4), after the athlete’s ex-girlfriend, DJ Gabriela Cavallin , went public with photos and videos of attacks he would have suffered. Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus was called up for the vacancy.

In an official note, the CBF justified the cut of the selection precisely because of the disclosure of Gabriela’s materials, which show different parts of the body with cuts and bruises supposedly caused by Antony.

In a report from the portal wow, Gabriela said she was threatened by the player while she was pregnant by the athlete himself. “He already said things like: ‘either I was going to stay with him or everyone was going to die’. Me, him and our son. And I said: ‘you know I’m pregnant, right? You’re scaring me’. One hour he was crying, another time hitting me. Definitely one of the worst days of my life”. The DJ ended up losing the baby weeks later.

According to the publication, Gabriela, 23 years old, went to the police in Manchester, England, last Friday and filed a new complaint against Antony, also 23 years old. In the inquiry, the DJ exposes images of what would be the last aggression committed by the United player, leaving her with an injury to her right hand, with the bones of her fingers exposed.

wanted by Estadão, Antony’s advisory stated, in a note signed by the player’s manager, Júnior Pedroso, that the athlete “will not pronounce while the Justice does not give its opinion”. The attacker’s defense understands that the case is unfavorable to Gabriela. “What can be seen is that she always appears in the media at times when she knows that she could harm Antony. Like on the day he was called up for the Brazilian national team and now at the time of his presentation. But the facts exposed are the same as those being treated in the investigative process”, completes the note.

Gabriela’s defense manifested itself this Monday in an official press release, saying that justice will be done.
