The investigative service for criminal cases has announced charges against half-defender Tomas Partey. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He is a Ghanaian footballer who recently left the "Arsenal" club due to the expiration of his contract. According to The Telegraph, Partey has been charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault.
Three years ago, in July 2022, there were reports of rape charges against a player from a high-level club in England, but at that time only the name of the current player has been revealed. The English football community is criticizing "Arsenal" for allowing Partey to play on the field despite the serious allegations.
At the same time, there is the example of "Manchester City" player Benjamin Mendy, who was also suspended from the club due to similar allegations, but later all charges were dropped. Tomas Partey is scheduled to appear in court on August 5.
This situation is causing significant attention and controversy in the world of football.
