Manchester United has released a statement after one of its players, Mason Greenwood was accused of sexual assault and domestic violence by his girlfriend, Harriet Robson.
KanyiDaily recalls that Robson had taken to her Instagram stories on Sunday morning to share horrific photos and videos of injuries she claims the footballer inflicted on her when he allegedly forced himself on her.
In some of the gory photos she shared, Robson had bruises on her thighs, while another image showed blood flowing from her mouth to her chest.
Robson also shared an audio message in which she accused the 20-year-old English international player of being responsible for the wounds.
Greater Manchester Police had said they were “aware of images and video circulating on social media. Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances.”
