Ghana international Thomas Partey was formally charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault by the UK’s Metropolitan Police on Friday, July 4, 2025.
This follows a three-year investigation into alleged incidents involving three women.
Partey was first arrested on suspicion of rape three years ago in July 2022. The Metropolitan Police have been conducting a full investigation since then, according to Sky Sports.
The 32-year-old is facing significant legal obstacles as he gets ready to appear before the Westminster Magistrates' Court on August 5, 2025. He departed Arsenal on June 30, 2025, when his contract expired.
Meanwhile, Partey through his lawyer has denied all the charges. A statement from his lawyer Jenny Wiltshire read:
Thomas Partey denies all the charges against him. He has fully cooperated with the police and CPS throughout their three-year investigation. He now welcomes the opportunity to finally clear his name.
