A Premier League footballer accused of rape has been questioned by police for a second time as the investigation into multiple allegations continues, sources have told ESPN.

The player, who is in his 30s, went to a police station on Nov. 7 and was interviewed under caution.

The player, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has continued to play for his club ever since his initial arrest at an address in London on suspicion of rape in July 2022. The alleged rape in question happened in June 2022.

While in custody, he was further arrested on suspicion of two incidents of rape alleged to have taken place in April and June of 2021 against a different woman in her 20s.

In February 2023, the man was interviewed under caution for a sexual offence said to have taken place in February 2022. This relates to a third victim. He was then interviewed last week as the investigation continues.

A Metropolitan Police statement provided to ESPN read: "Met officers are investigating following a number of reports of alleged sexual offences between 2021 and 2023.

"A man in his 30s was arrested in July 2022. He has since been has been interviewed by police on two further occasions while under caution. The investigation remains ongoing and detectives are continuing with in-depth and detailed enquiries.

"Those who have come forward to police continue to receive support from Met officers."

The police will not take any further action over the alleged offence in June 2021 because the relevant legislation had not come into effect at the time it was said to have occurred.
