According to Brazilian news outlet Portal G1, the São Paulo Police have concluded their investigation into the claims but have decided not to indict the footballer due to insufficient evidence.

The case has been forwarded to the Prosecutor's Office, which will review the findings and decide whether to file formal charges.

The ongoing investigations could potentially impact his career further, both on and off the pitch.

Antony, who was signed by Manchester United for a staggering €95 million in August 2022, has struggled to justify the hefty price tag since his arrival.

Despite the high expectations that accompanied his transfer—making him the second-most expensive signing in the club's history—his performances have not matched the significant investment made in him.

This situation has only intensified scrutiny of his off-field conduct, affecting both his reputation and career prospects.
