JAKARTA - Villarreal midfielder Thomas Partey was present on Wednesday at a London court and pleaded not guilty to allegations of rape and sexual assault involving three women.

Partey, Ghana's international player, was charged with five cases of rape of two women, plus one charge of sexual assault on a third woman, between April 2021 and June 2022.
