Recall in 2020, the 21-year-old was arrested over allegations of attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault on his girlfriend.
Greater Manchester Police, said, “criminal proceedings had been discontinued by the Crown Prosecution Service.”
TGMP’s Head of Public Protection, Michaela Kerr, said, “it was ‘only fair’ that the force publicised the latest development given the significant media coverage of this case.”
She added, “The investigation team has remained in regular contact with the legal team, providing any updates of note, and so understand the rationale for the discontinuation of proceedings at this stage, and that this decision has not been taken lightly.
“Despite the media and public’s interest in this case, we have decided not to comment on it in any further detail,” she maintained.
However, the trial date has been set for November 27, 2023, according to Sky Sports.
