Assuming anything is silly, we have no way of knowing one way or the other.
Which one? The 1st was before the bloke signed for the club (cracking due diligence btw), the subsequent ones who knows, your club is just having controversy after controversy at the moment, seems ten hag didn't have sancho's say so to give blurting out his mental health issues either. Given how you wanted greenwood back in the team it wouldn't surprise me.
Apparently the alleged victim was not seen by the Club physician but as is normal practice the club has referred players, players family members to alternative medical practitioners for treatment / consultation. That seems a fairly normal thing to do given that many of the players won't exactly be registering with the local GP. Whatever, the case its more noise that the club don't need but arguably have to share some responsibility for. If you sign a lad from a Sao Paulo favela then surely they must know that there is a risk that what they think is normal might not pass for such in the UK.
I thought that was common knowledge?

More claims being made in Brazil now from other women.
Club will probably side by him rather than suspending him.
Complete mess at the moment. At least they can say they don’t have a due duty to him because he’s through the academy.

Or be sensible and wait for more information? The allegations aren't great but we don't have a recording of him like we did with Greenwood.

It's not looking good, unless of course you took the view that 3 seemingly unlinked women have all made similar allegations.
The club are going to be under pressure to suspend him, but it could hinge on what Greater Manchester Police decide to do.
There is no disputing the club doctor thing either - I am sure a doctor did go and help, but I doubt the club suspected foul play at the time.
This in addition to the guest of honour incident is really quite bad...
There really isnt anything to say without there being evidence to back it up. United are a mess though.I'm sure @omnomnom will have something to say
It’s all ramping up now and not looking good for him or the club
I wouldn’t be sad to see Antony not play for us anymore. He’s never going to come good or deliver on his promise I feel and he’s far too wasteful

The problem is it could be £80+ mil down the drain for the club.
Obviously, it's not about the money if he's done these things but that's another massive L.

How in all that is holy do the club not do due diligence before they spend vast sums of money on a player. A quick "does this person have any history of really bad behaviour or have there been any allegations against them". They know that United and its players are held to far higher standards and scrutiny than any other club. This could be £100m down the drain to go with the loss from Greenwood.
Astonishing.
