Manchester United captain Harry Maguire has been released from police custody in Greece and is reported to be on the way home after being arrested over an alleged fight on the island of Mykonos on Thursday

A United 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.

“Harry has pleaded not guilty to the charges. It would be inappropriate for the player or club to comment further while the legal process takes its course.”

Greek Police allege that they had tried to break up an altercation between two groups outside a bar and that the three foreigners had then verbally abused and assaulted one of the officers

They added that after arriving at Mykonos police station, the three arrested individuals then “strongly resisted, pushing and hitting three police officers” and that “one of the detainees tried to offer money so that the trial against them would not be completed”.
