Unnamed 31-year-old player has been on extended bail Police decided to take no action over June 2021 incident
The Metropolitan police has handed a “full file” of evidence on a Premier League footballer accused of rape to the Crown Prosecution Service.
The player, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was first arrested on suspicion of rape in July 2022 at an address in Barnet and was rearrested while in custody following allegations of two more incidents of rape, taking place in April and June 2021, by another woman. Since then he has been released on bail, which has been repeatedly extended, and was questioned further in November. Meanwhile, the police confirmed a technicality meant it would be taking no further action over the incident that took place in June 2021.
