Thomas Partey Faces Five Rape Charges and Sexual Assault

The Metropolitan Police of London has announced that Thomas Partey faces six serious charges — five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault.

According to police, the alleged offenses occurred between 2021 and 2022 — involving three different women with details of two rape charges against the first woman, three rape charges against the second woman, and one sexual assault charge against the third woman.

The 32-year-old midfielder — who is now a free agent after his Arsenal contract expired — is scheduled to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on August 5.

“Our priority remains providing support to the women who have come forward,” said Detective Superintendent Andy Furphy who leads the investigation.

“After carefully reviewing a comprehensive file of evidence, we have authorized the prosecution of Thomas Partey for multiple counts of rape,” stated Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS London North, Jaswant Narwal.

The Ghana international made 35 Premier League appearances last season and scored four goals as Arsenal finished second in the standings.
