Former Arsenal player, Thomas Partey, has been granted conditional bail after being charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault.
The 32-year-old Ghanaian appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, charged with five counts of rape against two women, and a charge of sexual assault against a third woman.
The alleged offences took place between 2021 and 2022 when he was playing for the north London club, Arsenal.

He was charged four days after leaving Arsenal when his contract expired at the end of June. His next appearance is at the Old Bailey on 2 September.
Partey’s bail conditions state he cannot contact any of the three women and must notify police of any permanent changes of address or international travel.
The charges follow an investigation by detectives, which started in February 2022 after police first received a report of rape.
Partey’s lawyer, Jenny Wiltshire, previously said he “denies all the charges against him”, adding he welcomed “the opportunity to finally clear his name”.
