Antony, a Manchester United attacker, is said to have returned to England and is now prepared to meet with Greater Manchester Police to discuss the abuse claims leveled against him.
The 23-year-old is presently on leave from his club after being accused of violence by three different women, including his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin.
One of the three women who accused him of assault supposedly dropped her complaint, while two women continue to accuse him.
According to the Manchester Evening News, Antony has agreed to voluntarily meet with Greater Manchester Police to help them in their investigation.
The report claims that the Brazil international is willing to hand over his phone, as he continues to deny all of the allegations against him.
The Sao Paulo police have been investigating the alleged occurrences, and he has been granted permission to leave Brazil and return to Manchester, despite the fact that he is still on leave from the Red Devils.
Antony has not been arrested or charged, but he has expressed a desire to remain in Brazil to answer the claims leveled against him.
“The player Antony Matheus dos Santos has been the target of unfounded accusations made by his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin,” the forward’s management said in a recent statement.
“Antony, through his lawyers, has been closely following the police investigations as part of the ongoing investigation at the 5th Police Station for the Defense of Women and believes in the seriousness of the police work.”
