Antony accuser Ingrid Lana brands Man Utd star ‘liar’ after he shares private WhatsApp messages on Instagram | The Sun

ANTONY has been branded a "liar" by a banker who has come forward with fresh allegations against the Manchester United star.

It comes after the £85million winger issued a statement strongly denying the "false allegations" of assault made by his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin. 



Banker Ingrid Lana has now also accused the World Cup ace of physical violence.

The 33-year-old claimed the alleged attack took place at Antony's home in Manchester last October.

In an interview with Record, which aired on Sunday, Ingrid claimed Antony "tried having [sexual] relations" with her.

"He pushed me against a wall when I refused, and I hit my head," she alleged.

The banker claimed she never had a relationship with Antony – but found his behaviour "strange".

"I was there strictly for business. He invited me and upon my arrival I discovered he had second intentions. I was never anyone's mistress," Ingrid said.

Responding to the interview, Antony shared his private WhatsApp messages between the two of them.

But Ingrid hit back and accused the "desperate" Man United star of lying and fabricating the texts.

She said: "Are you desperate? It just shows how much of a liar you are and how you don't respect women, regardless of whether you flirt with a woman.

"He shared conversations between us as friends… including explicit conversations that don't even sound like me, because he's desperate.

"I saw these images and how he has modified them.

"I don't know what he wants to achieve by doing this. I don't know if he's desperate because of his fans.

"All I know is that the truth always comes out."

Addressing Antony in a video on Instagram, she said: "I feel sorry for you.

"You're embarrassing yourself."

She added: "It was never my intention to jeopardise him or his career."

Rayssa de Freitas is the third alleged victim to come forward against the Premier League ace.

A police report from May last year, which has been made public, describes alleged violent behaviour from the Man United player and internet personality Mallu Ohana.

Rayssa describes an alleged incident when she and Mallu –  Brazil player Dudu's ex-wife – got into the backseat of Antony's Land Rover after a night out in São Paulo, Brazil.

She claimed Antony was behind the wheel, and his hairdresser Rafa Contes, was also in the car.

The influencer reportedly told cops in Brazil that she ended up falling out with Mallu because she didn't want to "continue the fun" with the rest of them.

Rayssa claimed the argument turned violent and she was attacked by Mallu and Antony.

She alleged she opened the car's back door and fled after Antony stopped at a traffic light.

The police report claimed that a motorcyclist driving behind the Land Rover reportedly witnessed the alleged attack and wrote down Antony's licence plate.

As soon as Rayssa got out of the car, the motorcyclist claimed Antony sped off to an unknown destination.

The law student was then hospitalised, the Brazilian newspaper reports.

Following the latest accusations, Antony's representatives issued another statement blasting the allegation as "unfounded".

The statement, issued to news outlet F5, reads: “The player Antony Matheus dos Santos has been the target of unfounded accusations made by his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin.

"Antony, through his defenders, has been closely following the police investigations within the scope of the ongoing inquiry at the 5th Police Station for the Defense of Women and trusts in the seriousness of the work of the police authority.

"The investigation is being carried out in judicial secrecy, with no further comments on its content.

"In respect for the principle of presumption of innocence, sober, impartial, cautious and professional treatment is expected from the media and the Civil Police, Public Prosecutor's Office and the Judiciary act with impartiality and with respect for the right to defence.

"Antony will remain at the disposal of the police authorities, trusting that, in the end, the truth will prevail with the recognition of his innocence.”

The fresh accusations come hours after Man United strongly denied claims it covered up Antony's assault allegations by Gabriela Cavallin.

Sao Paulo Civil Police are investigating the allegations of assault alongside Greater Manchester Police.

Cavallin accused the Brazilian star, who has been axed from the national squad, of physical aggression towards her on a number of occasions in bombshell claims.

But the Old Trafford outfit described any suggestion of a cover-up as "categorically false" on Wednesday.

A Manchester United spokesman told The Sun Online: “Any suggestion that the club covered-up these allegations is categorically false.”

On Monday, amid further claims, Antony said he "trusts ongoing police investigations" to reveal the "truth about my innocence".
