On August 22, 2020, Manchester United captain Harry Maguire was released by a Greek prosecutor after appearing in court on Saturday following two days in detention over a brawl on the island of Mykonos.
Maguire, 27, will respond to the charges against him on August 25, according to local police.
Manchester United confirmed that Maguire had pleaded not guilty to the charges, stating that it would be inappropriate for the player or club to comment further while the legal process takes its course.
Under Greek law, Maguire can be represented by his lawyers in court in a hearing, rather than appear in person.
Maguire joined Manchester United from Leicester City for 80 million pounds ($105 million) in August 2019, a world record fee for a defender.
He had travelled to Mykonos for a holiday following United's exit from the Europa League last week.
Mykonos is well known for its lively night scene, and the proceedings were taking place at a courthouse on the nearby island of Syros.
