Manchester United forward, Antony has claimed he does not fear for his future at the Premier League club, despite the assault allegations levelled against him by three ladies.
Antony made this known while speaking on Brazilian TV channel SBT on Friday night, where he claimed the Red Devils are on top of the whole saga.
The Brazil international’s ex-girlfriend, Gabriela Cavallin, alleged that the 23-year-old footballer assaulted her on four occasions.
Since then, two more women in Brazil, Rayssa de Freitas and Ingrid Lana have also claimed that the winger physically abused them.
In the light of these claims, Brazil dropped Antony from their squad for the World Cup qualifiers, while United have not taken any action yet as police investigations continue in Manchester and Sao Paulo.

Last month, Man United released another player, Mason Greenwood, despite denying allegations of attempted rape and assault and being cleared by the Crown Prosecution Service, who dropped all charges against him in February.
However, Antony, who arrived for £85million from Ajax last year, isn’t worried about his future and remains confident that he will be exonerated.
Speaking during the interview, he said: “It’s something that doesn’t cross my mind.
“I know the truth and it will come out. I know many are butchering me, but the truth always comes out.
“United are on top of the whole inquiry. They’re following up and they’re going to keep up.”
