MANCHESTER United winger Antony will return to train with the club after being quizzed by cops on domestic violence allegations by his ex Gabriela Cavallin.
He is currently being investigated by police in both Manchester and Sao Paolo – and was axed from the Brazil national team for their World Cup qualifiers this month.

In a statement, the Premier League club confirmed the £85million winger’s return to training at Carrington.
But the star won’t be involved in training today or in Saturday’s match against Crystal Palace.
“Since allegations were first made in June, Antony has cooperated with police inquiries in both Brazil and the UK, and he continues to do so,” Man United said.
“As Antony’s employer, Manchester United has decided that he will resume training at Carrington, and be available for selection, while police inquiries proceed.
“This will be kept under review pending further developments in the case.
“As a club we condemn acts of violence and abuse.
“We recognise the importance of safeguarding all those involved in this situation, and acknowledge the impact these allegations have on survivors of abuse.”
Antony strongly denies all allegations against him and vowed to clear his name.
The announcement comes exactly 20 days after Cavallin led calls for Antony to be dropped from the squad in an exclusive interview with The Sun on Sunday.
