According to AFP, Morocco, and PSG defender, Achraf Hakimi, has been charged with rape.
Hakimi was questioned by prosecutors in connection with accusations from a 24-year-old woman and subsequently charged.
The Madrid-born player, who was a key part of Morocco’s historic run to the semi-finals of the World Cup in Qatar last year, was seen at PSG training on Friday morning.
AFP contacted the club but no comment was made on the issue. Hakimi allegedly paid for his accuser to travel to his house while his wife and children were away on holiday.
On Monday, Hakimi appeared at the FIFA Best awards ceremony in Paris, where he was named in the FIFPro men’s world team of the year.
In Qatar, he was a cornerstone of the Morocco team that became the first nation from the Arab world to reach the last four of a World Cup.
Under French law, being charged does not necessarily mean the case will go to trial.
