Midfielder Thomas Partey has already left Arsenal, but he will still have to return to England. This time, to stand trial.

Details: According to The Independent, the 32-year-old Ghanaian has been charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault. Investigators believe these incidents took place between 2021 and 2022.

The first report of the alleged crime surfaced in February 2022, prompting the London police to launch an investigation. Today, prosecutors have authorized formal charges, stating that enough evidence has been gathered in the case. The trial is set to begin on August 5, where Partey is expected to appear in court.

Reminder: 23-year-old Monaco midfielder Maghnes Akliouche has attracted serious interest from London’s Arsenal and could soon try his hand in the Premier League.
