England star charged with assault after alleged London nightclub incident
England striker Ivan Toney has been charged with assault following an alleged incident at a London nightclub in December 2025, with the Al-Ahli forward due to appear in court on September 24
England footballer Ivan Toney faces assault charges after an alleged incident at a London nightclub in December 2025. The 30-year-old striker, who plays for Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, was charged on July 31 and is set to appear in Westminster Magistrates' Court on September 24. The Metropolitan Police confirmed the charge, stating that Toney, from Northampton, is accused of causing actual bodily harm during the alleged assault on Wardour Street.
Toney's lawyer stated that his client is shocked by the charge but is prepared to defend himself in court. Toney played a crucial role in England's third-place finish in the 2022 FIFA World Cup held in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Despite criticism for his move to Saudi Arabia, Toney scored 42 goals for his club last season and made a notable impact in his brief stint with Peterborough, contributing to 72 goals in 141 appearances before joining Brentford in 2020.
