But he could make a comeback against Galatasaray tomorrow in the Champions League.
Last week, Antony returned to England and participated in a voluntary interview with the Greater Manchester Police.
The accusations leveled against Antony in both the UK and his native country are false.
The winger was seen yesterday at Carrington and may be able to help Erik ten Hag’s troubled team against the Turkish team at Old Trafford.
It follows their 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace on Saturday at home, their fifth loss in nine games across all competitions this season.
Yesterday his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin broke her silence since his return to training.
“Gabrela Cavallin’s attorneys inform that the crimes committed by the player are still being investigated by the Manchester Police and also the Brazilian Plice, which is why we believe that he will soon be sent to Court, where he will have to face a trial,” a press release read, according to MailOnline.
“It seems obvious to us that fallacies would be created with the intention that the team bringing him back to training.”
United boss ten Hag insisted the embattled player’s return to the squad will not be a “distraction”.
The club has faced numerous controversies in recent months – such as its handling of Mason Greenwood and ten Hag’s ongoing feud with Jadon Sancho.
Dutchman ten Hag said he has spoken to Antony.
