Manchester United Captain Harry Maguire was released from Greek Police Custody Saturday, TV footage showed, ahead of a hearing on assault charges on the Island of Mykonos.
Wearing a baseball cap and mask, Maguire was shown leaving a court house on neighbouring Syros Island, accompanied by what appeared to be members of his legal team and boarding a dark minivan.
The England centre back’s hearing has been set for Tuesday but he is not obliged to be present.
Manchester United in a statement said, “Following the appearance in court today, we note the adjournment of the case to allow the legal team to consider the case file.”
His lawyer Constantinos Darivas had earlier told Greek sports website gazzetta.gr that the England centre back had denied the charges and was in “fine condition” despite spending two nights in detention since his Thursday night arrest.
It will be recalled that the £80 million defender was arrested late Thursday after what Greek Police described as an “altercation between groups of British tourists in Mykonos.
