Striker Anthony will not yet return to training with the main Manchester United squad, according to the website of the English football club.

In June, Gabriela Cavallin, the ex-girlfriend of the Brazil national football team player, contacted the Sao Paulo police, accusing Anthony of four counts of domestic violence, threats and causing injury. Soon, two more girls accused the Brazilian of inappropriate behavior.

— Manchester United admits the allegations against Anthony. Players who did not take part in international matches are expected to return to training on Monday. However, in Anthony’s situation, it was decided that he would delay his return until further notice to look into the charges.

As a club we condemn acts of violence and abuse. “We recognize the importance of protecting everyone involved in this situation and recognize the impact these allegations have on victims of violence,” United said in a statement.

The player himself said on social networks that he and the club decided to take a break to respond to the accusations.

“I agreed with United to take a break while I respond to the allegations made against me. This was a mutual decision taken to avoid unnecessary controversy surrounding the club. I want to once again confirm my innocence and will fully cooperate with the police so that they can establish the truth. “I want to get back to playing as quickly as possible,” wrote the 23-year-old Brazilian.

This season, Anthony played four matches in the English Championship.
