The Crown Prosecution Service has reportedly received a "full file" from the Metropolitan Police on a Premier League player accused of raping three women and sexually assaulting a fourth. For legal reasons, the 31-year-old player has remained anonymous and will be referred to as Player X moving forward.
Player X was first arrested in Barnet on suspicion of rape in July 2022. While in custody, he was re-arrested after allegations of two more incidents of rape from April and June 2021 surfaced. Since then, Player X has been released on bail, which has been repeatedly extended.
In November 2024, he was reportedly called in for questioning again. The police, meanwhile, have confirmed that no further action will be taken against Player X over the June 2021 incident because of a technicality.
