the worst happened
Last year was the worst thing that happened to him in his life. She believes that the stress, the scares and the threats experienced in the relationship she had with the soccer player were decisive for the sad episode. Antony, who was withdrawn from the national team on Monday, denied the attack.
“The last time he hit me was when he hurt my finger on a broken glass.”
The DJ says that, in total, from the day she started dating Antony, they have been in a relationship for two years. In fact, her aggression began in the second year, although the player treated her badly before, she cursed and spoke more rudely, mainly out of jealousy of her.
— He attacked me the first time when I was pregnant — recalls Gabriela, who has been in Brazil for three months, but has not yet fully resumed her life.
“The last time he hit me was when he hurt my finger on a broken glass. I need corrective surgery. It doesn’t bend anymore.”

“It was at a party. I broke up with him when I was pregnant, I didn’t want to be with him anymore because there were a lot of fights. And I went to a party. He was there. In short, he went to the cabin where I was and asked him I asked a security guard to pick me up. I went to his box and he told me to sit down. I sat through the whole party until it was time to leave. He didn’t want to go alone. He took me by the hair and put me in the car. It was him, me and a friend of his. He was hitting me inside the car, cursing me. They asked him to stop the car in the middle of a road, and he ran in the middle of the rain. The friend and I ran after him. He had said that he was going to commit suicide. After about 10 minutes, we found him lying on the ground, his hand bleeding. He said he hit himself somewhere, I don’t remember.”
terrible testimony
“His friend was going to take me, but he was asleep at the wheel. He had been drinking. He stopped at a gas station to sleep in the car. I had to ask Antony’s father for someone to pick me up because I was alone, at night, in the middle of the highway between Alphaville and São Paulo. I don’t drive and couldn’t get a car through an app. Antonio picked me up. He tried to crash the car with us in it. I arrived at his father’s house and asked a security guard to pick me up there.”
Did you ever file a complaint after this assault? Did he think it wouldn’t happen again?
I did not do anything. I didn’t even think about it. Apart from the fact that she was pregnant and she did not want to be alone, she did not want to spend the pregnancy alone and she did not want my son to be without his father, I forgave him. And she said she wouldn’t do it again. She said that if I didn’t forgive him she would stop playing, she would kill herself, she would cry a lot… I have these screenshots of conversations with him. He said that “My son was going to be born without a father and it will be your fault”. I thought it wouldn’t happen again.
Have you been hit in the stomach?
No. He’d shake my arm, hit my head against the car window, and he kept scaring me. Brake the car, throw the car in front of the trucks, on the shoulder and drive at 250 kilometers per hour. It was even raining. And I said that I was getting scared and that I was going to lose the baby.
“Given two facts revealed in this second about the attacker of United Antony, which must be investigated, and to preserve the alleged victim, or player, to Seleção Brasileira and the CBF, the organization informs that the athlete was killed by the Brazilian team.”

Did you lose the baby after this episode? Did she assault her again before she lost the baby?
After about 20 days, I lost the baby. In fact, the other day I had a hemorrhage, I went to the hospital and it continued to bleed for about 20 days. When I returned to the hospital, the doctor said that my water had broken and that I would have to give birth. Water broke, but his heart kept beating inside my womb. I heard it on the ultrasound. He did not quite understand the gravity of the situation. Until he explained that there was nothing to do…he couldn’t be intubated, he was only 4.5 months old. She gave me the option to see him before the release (of the body). He was born alive, but for a short time. I had a normal labor, induced, about 30 hours. My mother saw it and picked it up. I did not see it. I didn’t want to see. It was by far the worst thing that happened to me in my life.
How traumatic…
Yeah, that’s why I didn’t want to see him. It was July 2022, Antonio was not there. He had already returned to Amsterdam. He just followed me from afar and said that when he felt better and ready to come back, he would come back. It was my mother who stayed here (in Brazil) with me. A month later I came back.
Why do you think she lost this baby?
I lost him because of everything I went through while I was pregnant, all the arguments, the fights, all the scares he gave me, the stress that he put me through, everything that cursed me, and it was every day, everything that threatened me… He called me all kinds when I went out to do something. When he tried to kill me that day in the car, when he hit me. It was a set. I went through a lot because of her while I was pregnant. I haven’t had a quiet day.
The messages
In another WhatsApp conversation, the DJ says that the player should apologize to her for “kicking and aggression.” Antony then replied, “I’m sorry.”
One of the videos to which he had access shows an injury to Gabriela’s hand, which exposed the bones of DJ’s fingers. She told a friend that she tried to defend herself from Antonio when he broke her glass.
The material was handed over to the Civil Police by Gabriela’s defense and appears in the investigation as proof of what the athlete’s attacks would have been.
The most serious case, the injury to the DJ’s hand, would have occurred on May 8 of this year, in Manchester, and it was the event that led to the complaint.
According to the woman’s report to the police, Antony would have been annoyed that Gabriela was using her cell phone. He allegedly took the glass of wine from Gabriela’s hand and threw it at her, who says he put her hand in front of her face to defend himself from her.

In his testimony, Antony told a different version: he would have asked her to stop drinking, to which she would have refused. The player tells that he tried to take the cup from her hand.
In June, the DJ registered a police complaint against the player Antony for domestic violence, threats and bodily harm. The case was registered at the Fifth Police Station for the Defense of Women.
The player’s statement
“Out of respect for my fansfriends and family, I feel compelled to speak publicly about the false accusations of which I have been a victim”, said the player.
And he added: “From the beginning I have treated this matter seriously and with respect, providing the necessary clarifications before the police authority. The police investigation is under judicial secrecy and, therefore, I cannot make its content public.”
“However, I can safely state that the accusations are false. and that the evidence already presented and the rest that will be presented show that I am innocent of the charges made. My relationship with Mrs. Gabriela was tumultuous, with verbal abuse on both sides, but I never practiced any physical aggression, “he said.
“Each time, whether in testimony or in interview, he presents a different version of the allegations,” he said.
“Therefore, I vehemently deny the accusations made and report that I am at the entire disposal of the Brazilian authorities to clarify what is necessary,” he said.
“I am confident that the ongoing police investigations will prove the truth about my innocence,” he said.
The agent spoke
The attacker’s agent, Junior Pedroso, sent a statement:
“We are silent because there is an investigation process in a police station in São Paulo. Several people she named as witnesses are being heard. The investigative process requires great caution to determine the facts as carefully as possible. Antonio will not pronounce himself until justice has given his opinion, which in our opinion is unfavorable for Gabriela, “she noted.
And he added: “What can be seen is that she always appears in the media at times when she knows she could hurt Antony. Like the day he was called up to the Brazilian team and now the day he was presented. But the facts exposed are the same ones that are being dealt with in the investigative process.”
Antony was hired by São Paulo in 2018 and sold to Ajax, from the Netherlands, in 2020. In 2022, he arrived at Manchester United for 100 million euros (504 million reais), in one of the largest purchases in the history of the English. club. He played the last World Cup with the national team.
