  • Premier League continues to face a series of scandals in recent times as another player is arrested for assaulting girlfriend
  • Police have decided not to reveal the name or club of the star who was nabbed after his lover reported him to the police
  • He has however paid a heavy sum having opted for an out-of-court settlement as this comes days after Mason Greenwood of Manchester United was arrested

Reports have it that an unnamed English Premier League star has been arrested over an attack on his girlfriend after she called in police officers.

The player who is billed for international honours was nabbed at his home after security operatives stormed the premises.

It was gathered that he also sent her abusive messages late in the night, but after being arrested, he quickly hired lawyers for an out-of-court settlement.

SunSport reports that a payout thought to be a five-figure sum was then agreed with the girlfriend.

A football source said:

“This is quite disturbing, especially coming after the claims about Greenwood.
“In this case, the footballer used his money to get lawyers to sort it out for him and keep it out of the public eye.
“He reached a settlement and that has effectively silenced the girl in question and stopped court action.
“Her claims though were very serious, and included at least one allegation of domestic assault.”

The star, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested in 2019 and is no longer in a relationship with his accuser.

Mason Greenwood released on bail

Meanwhile, after being released on bail by the police, Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood who is under investigation over assault has splashed a staggering £25,000 on attack dog to protect his home.

Following police questioning, the United forward has added a large German Shepherd-type animal to two other security personnel to secure his house.

Greenwood has been suspended indefinitely at his club after he was arrested and as he returns home on bail, the player is protecting himself and his family.

His new attack dog has its kennel by the side of the player’s red-brick as two security cameras are also fitted to monitor the six-bed, £14,000-a-month rented home in Cheshire round the clock.

Overmars resigns after sending messages to female colleagues

Sports Brief earlier reported that former Arsenal star Marc Overmars has resigned from his position as a director of football at Dutch club Ajax after admitting he sent inappropriate messages to female colleagues.

Reports have it that the 48-year-old had been at the club for about ten years having been appointed in 2012 as he recently signed a new deal until 2026.

The media in the Netherlands was awash with reports that the former midfielder had been sending inappropriate messages to lure his female colleagues to bed.
