Mason Greenwood, a Manchester United footballer, has been rearrested over sexual assault and making threats to kill.
On Sunday, the 20-year-old was initially detained on suspicion of rape and assault.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) announced it has been given additional time to question him after receiving a Monday extension.
He will not play for Manchester United until further notice, according to the club.
The footballer was arrested on Sunday, according to Greater Manchester Police, after the police department “became aware of online social media photographs and videos made by a woman describing acts of physical assault.”
According to the report, magistrates granted a second extension, allowing him to remain in detention until Wednesday.
A spokesman for the force stated that investigations were ongoing and that a lady was being given expert care.
Greenwood, who made his first appearance for the club in March 2019, signed a four-year contract with the club in February 2021 after progressing through the academy ranks.
