Robinho, the Premier League's most expensive player, is due to report to police this week in connection with an alleged sex assault, just 48 hours before Manchester City face a crucial UEFA Cup tie against FC Copenhagen.

Defender Micah Richards, 20, was arrested by appointment at a police station earlier this month after an alleged assault on an 18-year-old man in Greater Manchester on Christmas Eve. He was bailed until April.
