Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy has been charged with two more counts of rape. Mendy, 27, now faces six allegations of rape in all after initially being charged in August with four counts of rape. The France international has been in custody since his arrest in August after a number of bail applications were made but refused by judges.
Mendy is also charged with a single count of sexual assault, Cheshire Police said in a statement. All the alleged offences relate to four women over the age of 16 and are alleged to have taken place between October 2020 and August 2021.
