Summarised by MatchPal
Toney pleads not guilty to assault charges from December incident at London nightclub; trial set for June 2025.
Ivan Toney appeared in Southwark Crown Court on Thursday and pleaded not guilty to assault occasioning bodily harm following an altercation on 6 December at a nightclub on Wardour Street in London. The 30-year-old Al-Ahli forward, who represented England at last summer's World Cup, was released on bail without conditions.
Judge Christopher Hehir set a provisional trial date for 12 June 2025 at the same court, apologising to Toney for the delay. "It is quite a distant date and I am sorry that it is so," the judge said, citing the Crown courts' heavy caseload and backlog of pending cases.
