Man United star Antony’s ex Gabriela Cavallin shares ‘I hope you die’ texts & injury pics as cops probe violence claim
MANCHESTER United star Antony's ex-girlfriend has come forward with new text messages amid allegations of domestic violence.
It comes after the £85million winger denied assaulting Gabriela Cavallin and vowed to clear his name after being quizzed by cops in Brazil.
Cavallin's fresh claims were first published by Brazilian media outlet , one of the South American country's largest news providers.
Gabriela also shared two new images showing injuries on her head and fingers, claiming to be a result of Antony's alleged attacks.
She alleges her finger was cut to the bone and that the footballer attacked her while she was pregnant.
In a new string of undated WhatsApp messages, the DJ and influencer, 23, claims Antony wished she was dead and told her "go f**k yourself" after she allegedly refused to reply to his messages and calls.

"It's over between me and you," Antony reportedly wrote.
"I hope you die and go f*** yourself."
"You're disgusting you even left WhatsApp and turned off your internet."
The texts go on to read that Antony, also 23, allegedly called Gabriela "deceitful" and urged her to pick up his phone calls.

"You've been deceitful," the Brazil winger reportedly wrote.
"You did that with all the guys that you came across with in your life.
"Pick up the phone if you're woman enough."
A second screenshot from Gabriela's mobile phone exposes the Man United star's allegedly "unforgivable" actions.
Antony allegedly replied: "I understand, just take care of yourselves okay? That's all I ask of you."
Gabriela, who has nearly 500,000 Instagram followers, replied: "You tried scaring the life out of me speeding in your car and playing the steering wheel.
"So don't tell me to take care of myself now."
The shocking allegations come weeks after Gabriela reportedly was preparing to report Antony to police in the UK over domestic abuse allegations.
She had previously filed a complaint against the £85million winger which is currently under ongoing investigation in his native Brazil.
A total of four alleged attacks are described in a police report .
She says she dated Brazil World Cup ace Antony, also 23, on and off for two years and lived with him in Amsterdam while he played for Ajax.
She claims the first assault came at a nightclub in São Paulo last July when she was around 17 weeks pregnant with his baby.
Antony allegedly dragged her out by the arm and hair then pushed her into a car after she ended their romance.
Gabriela told cops they got back together soon after and she moved with him to Manchester after his transfer to the Red Devils.
A second alleged attack came at Gabriela's flat in January.
The "jealous" star is alleged to have left her needing surgery to fix displaced silicone boob implants.
Two more alleged assaults followed in England - one witnessed by her friend and Antony's mother.
Gabriela also said Antony threatened her after she returned to Brazil last month.
She has requested "urgent protective measures" against Antony, according to Brazilian media.
A spokesman for Manchester United said the club does not have any comment.
The Sun Online has also contacted Greater Manchester Police for comment on the allegations.
The couple's romance was first made public last year.
In July, Gabriela shared on social media that she had suffered a miscarriage.
The baby boy would have have been named Luca Mateo.
Antony issued a lengthy denial and vowed to clear his name when the allegations were first made in June.
On Monday evening, he issued a second statement on his Instagram profile
It read: "Out of respect for my fans, friends and family, I feel obliged to speak out publicly about the false accusations that I have been a victim of.
"From the beginning, I have treated this matter with seriousness and respect, providing the necessary clarifications to the police.
"The investigation is under judicial secrecy, and therefore I cannot make its contents public.
"However, I can calmly say that the accusations are false, and that the current evidence and the ones yet to be produced demonstrate my innocence.
"My relationship with Mrs. Gabriela was tumultuous, with verbal insults from both sides, but I never committed any physical aggression.
"Each time, whether in testimony or in an interview, she presents a different version of the accusations.
"Therefore, I come to vehemently deny the accusations made and inform you that I remain at the entire disposal of the Brazilian authorities to clarify anything.
"I trust that ongoing police investigations will demonstrate the truth about my innocence."
Gabriela also issued a statement from her lawyers in the same evening.
It read: "Gabriela Cavallin's defence, in view of the facts and evidence that became public knowledge on this date, regarding the repeated episodes of aggression suffered by her, informs that she trusts the serious and competent investigation by the Civil Police of São Paulo.
"[And] hopes that, as such, once completed, the aggressor will be prosecuted and punished for the crimes he committed."
It comes as the Brazilian FA (CBF)'s axed Antony from the national squad ahead and replaced by Gabriel Jesus ahead of this month's two World Cup qualifiers.
