He has not been arrested or charged and has promised to &#8216;come up with the evidence&#8217; to prove the truth.<\/p>\n<p>The winger was recently spotted near Sao Paulo, having flown to his homeland before being told he had been dropped for this month&#8217;s international fixtures. He is expected to stay in the country as he looks to defend himself against the claims.<\/p>\n<p>DJ and influencer Gabriela Cavallin has alleged the footballer, who joined United for \u00a385million last summer, assaulted her four times, while bank worker Ingrid Lana claimed she was pushed up against a wall in Manchester last September.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both women have given TV interviews over the past week and alleged they were assaulted.
