Former Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey has been charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault according to the Athletic.
The 32-year-old, who previously could not be named for legal reasons, has been under investigation that first started in February 2022 and had continued playing for the Premier League club prior to the expiry of his contract at the end of June.
The allegations relate to three separate women who reported incidents which took place between 2021 and 2022.
Partey will now appear at Westminster Magistrates Court on Tuesday, August 5 for the case.
Thomas has been a key player from Arsenal since joining from Atletico Madrid in 2020 when the then Arsenal's sporting director Andrea Berta was the director at Atletico Madrid and reports say their relationship was never good and they faced many confrontations when he was transferring to Arsenal in the triggering of agent fee that was supposed to be 10 percent and Berta resolved to give only three percent.
Now that Arsenal appointed Andrea Berta as their sporting director it is alleged that he has since refused to renew Partey's contract leading to the case being resurrected against the star .
As things stand the case was on hold due to legal reasons since it was last mentioned in late 2023 but due to the reputation of the star and Arsenal football club it was played down in recent terms "under water"
However the star will now face the law as it stands.
