Premier League star's girlfriend victim of sex attack in Manchester hotel?

The girlfriend of a Premier League footballer was reportedly sexually assaulted by a man posing as her boyfriend while staying in a hotel in Manchester.

Police are believed to be investigating allegations that someone crept into her room at the five-star Lowry Hotel in Salford last month.

The woman is thought to have claimed that someone, who she assumed was her footballer boyfriend, laid next to her in the bed, but only discovered the next day after speaking to her other half that it was an intruder, according to The Sun.

Reports have claimed that a 32-year-old man, who is thought to be a hotel employee, was arrested and later released on bail.
