A PREMIER League star has been quizzed over a fresh alleged sex attack after a third woman came forward.
The footballer was already accused of raping two women in separate attacks, one in June last year and one in April 2021.
The footballer’s bail has been extended for a third time
A third alleged victim has now come forward to claim she was sexually assaulted by the international star in Hertfordshire in February last year.
The player, who was taken to the 2022 World Cup, spent hours being questioned under caution at a police station following the new allegation.
It came after he was held last July after police swooped on a home in North London.
His first alleged victim, in her 20s, claimed she was raped during a break in the Med in June.
She fled the five-star resort she was staying in and flew home to her friends and family, it is said.
The woman is understood to have spoken to police on her return to the UK and showed photos she claimed highlighted bruising on her body after the alleged attack.
After his initial arrest he was later re-arrested on suspicion of two more counts from April and June 2021.
The June allegation was later dropped by police.
He had been due to answer police bail this month but this was extended for a third time until early July.
The player has not been suspended by his club while the investigation is ongoing and remains a first team player.
Fellow footballers were said to be stunned by the claims, which swept Premier League stars’ WhatsApp groups.
The player’s arrest has been the talk of dressing rooms at the elite level across the UK.
Scotland Yard told The Sun: “On 4 July 2022, an allegation of rape of a woman in her 20s was reported to police.
“It was reported the alleged rape happened in June 2022. On 4 July, a man was arrested at an address on suspicion of rape and taken into custody.
“While in custody, he was further arrested on suspicion of two incidents of rape that were alleged to have been committed in April and June of 2021 against a different woman in her 20s.
“In February 2023, the man was interviewed under caution for a sexual offence alleged to have taken place in Barnet in February 2022. This relates to a third victim and was reported to police in July 2022.
“No further action will be taken in relation to the alleged offence in June 2021 because the relevant legislation had not yet come into effect at the time it is said to have occurred.
“This has been explained to the complainant who continues to be supported by officers.”
