Newcastle midfielder Kieron Dyer was arrested after a woman complained that he had indecently exposed himself, Press Association, citing police sources, said on Thursday.
Dyer (27) had been released on police bail without charge pending further investigation, sources said. The investigation centred on an alleged incident at a hotel in Norwich, eastern England, earlier this year, sources said.
A spokesperson for Norfolk Police would only say a 27-year-old man had been arrested and released on police bail by officers investigating an allegation of indecent exposure.
She refused to confirm or deny whether the man was Dyer. Dyer moved to Newcastle from Ipswich for £6-million in 1999 and has won 16 England caps.
The footballer’s agent, Jonathan Barnett, declined to comment on the incident. A Newcastle United spokesperson referred all inquiries to Mr Barnett. — AFP
