Former Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey, 32, has been charged with two additional counts of r3pe
Partey, who denies raping two women and sexually assaulting a third, is scheduled to face trial in November. The Crown Prosecution Service has authorised the new charges, and he is set to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday, March 13, in relation to them.
He previously pleaded not guilty to five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault at Southwark Crown Court in September last year. The alleged offences occurred between 2021 and 2022, during which time Partey was a regular in Arsenal’s first team in the Premier League. He was initially charged four days after leaving the club following the expiration of his contract in June.
Partey, currently playing for La Liga side Villarreal, remains on bail. His bail conditions allow him to continue playing football but require him to notify police of any international travel at least 24 hours in advance and prohibit him from contacting the complainants.
The Ghana international continues to be a key figure for his national team, who will face England in the World Cup group stage in the United States on June 23.
