Antony Denies Assault Allegations, Leaks ‘Fraudulent’ WhatsApp Messages From Girlfriend

Manchester United footballer Antony has hit back at an assault allegation made by Ingrid Lana and published a series of WhatsApp messages in an attempt to discredit her.

VerseNews gathered that Lana, a 33-year-old banker, alleged in an interview with Record TV in Brazil that Antony was aggressive towards her in October.

She accused the 23-year-old winger of pushing her against a wall after he tried to kiss her.

Antony is being investigated by police in Sao Paulo and Manchester after his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin accused him of assaulting her on four occasions. Antony has denied any wrongdoing.

Last Thursday, another two women in Brazil came forward to level accusations against the £85million player.

Following the announcement by the club on Sunday that Antony will be out of the squad until further notice, he took to his Instagram account with a series of posts, including four screenshots of WhatsApp conversations, allegedly with Lana.

He also wrote: “I don’t want to but I’m being forced to publish a small part of the WhatsApp conversations with Ingrid, which demonstrates that we only had a single meeting, intimate and consensual.

“This matter with this fraudster will be resolved in court!!”
