Thomas Partey has been charged with two additional counts of rape.

The former Arsenal midfielder has already appeared in court where he denied raping two women and sexually assaulting a third.

He is due to face trial on those allegations in November.

This morning, the Crown Prosecution Service announced that the additional charges referred to a separate report of non-recent offences in 2020 and a new investigation carried out by Metropolitan Police.

They added that the fresh allegations were first reported last August.

The alleged offences which Partey previously denied in court are said to have taken place in 2021 and 2022, when the 32-year-old was an Arsenal regular.

He was charged four days after he departed the London club following the expiration of his contract in June.

Partey now plays for Villarreal in Spain. The conditions of his bail do not prevent him from playing, although he must notify police of any international travel 24 hours in advance and must not contact the complainants.

A spokesperson for the CPS said: ‘Mr Partey is already charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault in connection to allegations by three women of incidents which took place between 2021 and 2022.

‘These new charges relate to a separate report of non-recent offences in 2020 involving one additional woman and follow a new investigation by the Metropolitan Police. These allegations were first reported in August 2025.

‘He will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday, 13 March for a first hearing.’
