Ex-Arsenal Star Thomas Partey Faces Multiple Rape Charges in UK Court
Former Arsenal and Ghanaian international midfielder, Thomas Partey, appeared before Westminster Magistrates’ Court in London on Monday, August 5, 2025, over serious sexual offence allegations. He is facing five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault involving three different women.
The alleged incidents reportedly took place between 2019 and 2022 while Partey was still an active player in the Premier League. The 32-year-old footballer has denied all charges brought against him. He was granted conditional bail pending further proceedings.
The court adjourned the case to allow for a preliminary hearing at the Crown Court later this month. The Metropolitan Police confirmed that investigations are ongoing and that victim support services have been engaged.
