Benjamin Mendy as arrived at court today to face his trial over one count of rape and another of attempted rape.
The Manchester City star, 28, was seen going into Chester Crown Court this morning.
Mendy, whose contract with Manchester City expires at the end of this month, has denied all the charges filed against him.
Mendy joined Manchester City from French club Monaco in 2017. He has played 75 times for City, but his playing time was limited by injuries and a loss of form.
He has not played since August 15, 2021.
The last of his 10 caps for France came in November 2019, after the defender won the World Cup in 2018.

Mendy is simply being tried for the same crime twice which is totally unacceptable and wrong on all law ethics. The accuser has already been caught in many lies and the reason he was acquitted in the first trial. This is absolutely abuse of power by prosecutors in this case.
