Chelsea attacker Callum Hudson-Odoi has been released on bail following his arrest on suspicion of rape in the early hours of Sunday morning 

The England international, who has Ghanaian roots, was released on Monday after being questioned by the Police. However, he has been bailed to return on a date in mid-June as enquiries continue.

Police and an ambulance were called to an address in London at 03:53 BST to a report of an unwell woman.

When emergency services attended, a woman reported that she was raped. She was taken to the hospital.

Chelsea have declined to comment.

Hudson-Odoi, who has three England caps and in September signed a new five-year contract with Chelsea, was the first Premier League player to test positive for coronavirus.

He made a full recovery and, like other Chelsea players, is waiting to return to training before any proposed restart to the season.
