FORMER Arsenal footballer Thomas Partey has been granted conditional bail after appearing in court on rape and sexual assault charges.

- TED HENNESSEY and SAM HALL

The Ghanaian midfielder, 32, has been charged with five counts of rape against two women, as well as a charge of sexual assault against a third woman.

The alleged offences took place between 2021 and 2022, when he was an Arsenal player.

Partey stood with his arms behind his back in the dock at Westminster Magistrates’ Court yesterday, wearing a black zip-neck jumper.

The footballer, who gave his address as Potters Bar, showed no reaction as the charges were read out and was not asked to enter any pleas.

The alleged offences include incidents of anal rape, the court heard.

His bail conditions include that he cannot contact any of the three women and must notify police of any permanent changes of address or international travel. It comes amid reports that Partey is set to join Spanish club Villarreal.
