Manchester United winger Antony has been dropped from Brazil's squad following fresh allegations that he assaulted his former girlfriend.

Brazilian publication UOL published allegations made by Gabriela Cavallin on Monday, which contained images of her alleged injuries and screenshots of WhatsApp messages between her and an individual she states is Antony.

Cavallin alleged that Antony attacked her in June last year, when she was pregnant with their child and on holiday in Brazil.

She claimed Antony put her in a car, repeatedly assaulted her and threatened to throw her out of the car at high speed.

Another alleged attack allegedly took place in Manchester on January 15 this year, which left Cavallin needing medical attention.

Cavallin told UOL: "I don't remember exactly who the fight was about, but it was someone I had been with years ago. He punched me in the chest and my silicone [implant] turned over.

"Then I came to Brazil for surgery to change the prosthesis. He said: 'I didn't mean to hurt you, it was accidental, it wasn't a punch, I just pushed you, I just held you against the wall."

The final alleged attack took place on May 8 when Antony threatened Cavallin with a glass, and she cut a finger trying to defend herself.

Antony previously released a statement in June to say he had been falsely accused of committing domestic violence, and he has now released another statement on social media to deny the latest accusations.

The statement read: "I can say with confidence that the accusations are false and that the evidence already produced show that I am innocent of the accusations made.

"My relationship with Ms Gabriela was tumultuous, with verbal offences from both sides, but I never practiced any physical aggression. I trust that the ongoing police investigations will demonstrate the truth about my innocence."

Following the latest developments, the Brazilian FA have confirmed that Antony has been removed from the squad for September's World Cup qualifiers against Bolivia and Peru, and replaced by Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus.

Cavallin has submitted separate reports to Greater Manchester Police and Sao Paulo Civil Police.

A statement from Greater Manchester Police read: "Greater Manchester Police is aware of the allegations made and enquiries remain ongoing to establish the circumstances surrounding this report."

Antony, who joined Man United from Ajax in August 2022, played for Erik ten Hag's side in Sunday's 3-1 defeat to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
