Man Utd star Antony’s ex Gabriela Cavallin arrives in UK as she’s set to talk to cops over ‘abuse’ claims
ANTONY’S ex-girlfriend headed to Manchester’s celebrity hotspots after arriving in the UK ahead of her police interview over claims he attacked.
Model Gabriela Cavallin has accused the Red Devils star, 23, of assaulting her multiple times during their relationship.
She claimed that she was first attacked by the £85million winger in June last year, while pregnant and on holiday in Brazil.
The DJ alleged that Antony then headbutted and punched her, damaging a breast implant, at a hotel in Manchester on January 15 – the day after United’s 2-1 victory over City.
And Gabriela claimed the Brazilian forward threw a glass at her in May, injuring her finger.
Gabriela arrived in the UK yesterday ahead of a scheduled chat with cops in Manchester over her claims he attacked her at a hotel in the city.
Snaps shared on Instagram show the model posing in a black dress at nightclub Chinawhite.
Gabriela also posted pictures from inside the plush Japanese restaurant SakkuSamba in Spinningfields.
Last month, Antony was grilled by Greater Manchester Police (GMP) for five hours over her allegations.
Antony has strongly denied all allegations made against him and volunteered to meet cops in Manchester for questioning.
He was also voluntarily interviewed by Brazilian cops in June and was free to leave for the UK after cooperating with Sao Paulo police.
The football star has not been arrested or charged in either the UK or Brazil.
Gabriela previously exclusively told The Sun on Sunday that she believes Antony should be axed from the Man Utd squad.
She said: “Antony needs to be taken off the pitch. 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.”
Gabriela also demanded to know why United bosses waited three months to respond to the abuse allegations.
It has been reported in Brazil that Gabriela has told police that £150,000-a-week Antony assaulted her four times.
Gabriela vowed to keep fighting for her claims to be taken seriously.
She said: “I will do everything in my power.
“I will not give up. People need to be held accountable.”
Antony has repeatedly defended himself and denied accusations, which became public in June.
He wrote on Instagram: “Out of respect for my fans, friends and family, I feel obliged to speak out publicly about the false accusations that I have been a victim of.
“From the beginning, I have treated this matter with seriousness and respect, providing the necessary clarifications to the police.
“The investigation is under judicial secrecy, and therefore I cannot make its contents public.
“However, I can calmly say that the accusations are false, and that the current evidence and the ones yet to be produced demonstrate my innocence.”
