It seems like Manchester United’s Antony has found himself in some hot water. The Brazilian national team has dropped him from their roster due to some serious allegations of domestic abuse made by his ex-girlfriend. Talk about a red card! The accusations against Antony include physical attacks, damage to breast implants (ouch), and even cutting his ex-girlfriend’s finger with broken glass.
The Brazil Football Confederation is taking these allegations seriously and wants to safeguard the alleged victim while an investigation takes place. Brazilian authorities and the Greater Manchester Police are on the case, and Antony has denied all the accusations, expressing his confidence in his innocence. However, his ex-girlfriend has provided new details about the incidents, claiming that the abuse occurred both while they were on holiday in Brazil and after Antony joined Manchester United.

Antony’s removal from the Brazilian national team is not a decision to be taken lightly. The Brazil Football Confederation wants to ensure the safety of the alleged victim and maintain the integrity of the national team. It’s a move that shows they are committed to addressing such serious allegations and conducting a thorough investigation.
It’s important to note that Antony has vehemently denied all the allegations made against him. He firmly maintains his innocence and has expressed his confidence that he will be cleared of any wrongdoing.
However, Brazilian media has published alleged exchanges between Antony and his ex-girlfriend that paint a different picture. In these exchanges, he appears to threaten and intimidate her, which is definitely not a good look for someone representing their country on an international stage. It’s a tough situation for everyone involved, but one thing is for sure – this scandal has certainly put a damper on Antony’s career and reputation.

As a result of Antony’s removal from the team, Gabriel Jesus has been called up as a replacement for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers. It’s a blow for Antony, who would have had the opportunity to showcase his skills on a global platform. However, in light of these serious allegations, it’s understandable why the Brazilian soccer confederation made this decision.
They want to protect both Antony and the alleged victim while the investigation unfolds. Only time will tell what the outcome will be, but one thing is certain – this scandal has cast a shadow over Antony’s future in football.
