Manchester United’s Antony is facing further allegations of assault made by a woman in an interview with a Brazilian TV channel.
A police investigation has already been opened following allegations of domestic abuse against his former girlfriend.
Brazilian news outlet UOL published allegations made by Antony’s ex-partner on Monday.
Sao Paulo Police are also looking into the claims, which Antony has denied.
On Thursday, two more women made public claims against Antony in the Brazilian media. United issued a statement on Monday to say they were taking the matter involving Cavallin “seriously.”
The club have so far declined to comment on the latest accusations. Antony denies any wrongdoing. Investigations are ongoing in Brazil and Manchester.
Antony was also accused of attacking his former girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin “with a headbutt” in a Manchester hotel room on 15 January, leaving her with a cut head which needed treatment from a doctor.
It is alleged that Antony called a United employee to attend after Cavallin had sustained injuries in the hotel room.
It is further alleged that the club employee arranged for a private doctor to visit Cavallin so the influencer and DJ would not need to go to hospital where questions would have been asked about how the incident occured.
She alleges she was also punched in the chest, causing damage to a silicone breast implant, which required corrective surgery.
Antony previously said on social media about Cavallin’s claims: “I can calmly state that the accusations are false and that the evidence already produced and the other evidence that will be produced demonstrate that I am innocent of the accusations made.”
