A 27-year-old man was arrested earlier today on suspicion of sexual activity with a girl under 16 believed to be a professional footballer.

Just seen this he plays for England to apparently

Oh? I hadn't seen that. 

 

Plays for or has played for? They're a bit dodgy with those kinds of reports when they first break, can be a player who once played for England and then their career fell away like David Bentley (not saying it was him).

They said an england international but like you said that could mean still play now or played before

I wouldn't be surprised if it was for the England B team...

Adam Johnson.

Is 27.

Probably will somehow be John Terry's fault.

Just saying.

Edit: I'll stop being smart because it's a serious issue. I've heard the player in question is Adam Johnson.

Just been confirmed that it's Adam Johnson:

If it had been a 76 year old we could have narrowed it down....

Well that's his season over.... And possibly his career. 

Is it really fair to name him when he's not even been charged, let alone found guilty of anything?

Yeah it doesn't look good although I want to hear more information before I actually make my judgement as that BBC breaking news article tells us nothing really.

Wow, not yet 16 years old and already a professional footballer, impressive. Or am I the only one to read it like that?

If that is true, it's madness. Why are footballers always involved in cases of rape, underage sex or some kind of sinister, sordid stuff? I mean you're a professional footballer earning all this money, yet you have to get your jollies from under age girls and/or rape. Didn't ribery and van persie do something like this a few years back?

Apparently the girl was/is 14.

I can't think of many reason a professional football player should be alone with a 14 year old girl, let alone a situation that can be construed as sexual.

Not looking looking too good for Johnson right now I must say.

I hope for his sake and his career it's a horrible misunderstanding.

Worth mentioning that the ref was brilliant. 

Presently he is the only ref I have no worries about, even if he did us over v Man Utd 2012

Always ? there are thousands of footballers on the planet, there is always going to be the odd few who commit crimes.

Johnson getting trolled hard on social media.

 

Some twisted f**k even edited his wikipedia page to say "goals scored. U15: 1"

wasn`t he linked to us few years ago....there you go,there`s the link to us and him....HEADLINES "Former chelsea transfer target...............

It was inevitable.

R East found himself in a hole but refused to stop digging, his duplicity has come back to bite him,now the FA & Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL)

should do the correct thing and suspend R East for Incompetence, at leased for 6 weeks, that should make him mend his way.

Angel di Maria was sold by Real Madrid because he is too ugly, according to Barcelona's assistant sporting director Carles Rexach:

 

"Del Bosque and Di Maria are too ugly for Real Madrid. They are different from Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez.

Florentino Perez looks at the world market and wants a team of Galacticos for everyone to admire.

Ronaldo is the flagship of the club. Perez is selling an international brand."

As if Diego Costa is a world-class Kevin Davies though... he's nowhere near as good in the air!
