Recent updates reveal that prosecutors have added two further counts of alleged offences, relating to another complainant, a fourth lady, who is also unnamed.

On Thursday, February 12, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) confirmed that these new charges come following a fresh review by the Metropolitan Police, with the latest allegations initially reported in August 2025.

The CPS explained that the additional charges were authorised after a careful assessment of new evidence provided by the police.

It should be stated that the initial investigation into Partey began in February 2022, following the first report of alleged misconduct. Since then, authorities have continued to examine further information as it emerged, leading to the latest developments.

Meanwhile, Partey, who is now facing seven crucial accusations in total, is scheduled to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on March 13 of this year.

Last September, he entered not guilty pleas to five counts linked to prior allegations and one charge of sexual assault. The incidents are reported to have occurred between 2021 and 2022.

Fans react to latest Partey charges

In the meantime, fans were quick to share their views on the fresh allegations against Thomas Partey, with some of the social media comments stated below.

@Iamthatopsguy:

''It raises a haunting question for the sport: How does the industry handle players who are legally active but ethically radioactive? His move to Villarreal and the subsequent fan protests there show that the 'darkest day' for a club is often when the game tries to ignore the law.''

@FaithChiazor:

''Seven allegations is not something to treat lightly. At the same time, due process matters. These are serious criminal accusations that must be handled by the legal system. Not trial by social media.''

@Amaxing Africa:

''He shall overcome. It has now become a business.''
