Two Premier League stars who were both arrested in a police rape probe have now reportedly been suspended by their football club.
The two unnamed footballers, both 19, are from the same club and were arrested at the weekend after the alleged victim made a report to police.
One player, 19, was reportedly spoken to by police on suspicion of assault and aiding and abetting a rape at the club stadium before he was formally arrested after leaving the grounds.
He was detained overnight and was later questioned by police under caution.
The other player, who is also 19, was arrested the next day and was later quizzed by officers on suspicion of rape.

Both players have since been released on bail pending further enquiries, police have said.
The alleged rape reportedly took place on Friday night, with the alleged victim contacting police and filing a formal complaint hours later.
The force said: 'Officers have arrested two men following a report of a rape.
'A 19 year-old man was arrested on Saturday (20 April) on suspicion of assault and aiding and abetting a rape. A second 19-year-old man was arrested on Sunday (21 April) on suspicion of rape.
'Both men have since been released on police bail.'
A club spokesman told The Sun yesterday: 'As the matter is now in the hands of the police, the Football Club will not be making further comment at this stage.'
Police officers arrived at the stadium to speak to the footballer and spoke with him in a private room, a source told the paper.
They said the player left with another person and was arrested that night.
It is not the first time the Premier League has been at the centre of a police investigation over an alleged rape.

Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood, 22, was charged with attempted rape, assault and coercive behaviour in October 2022.
The case against him was subsequently dropped in February 2023 after key witnesses withdrew. Greenwood denied all the allegations against him.
After an internal club investigation, the decision was taken to send Greenwood out on loan to Spanish club Getafe.
The expectation at the time was that Greenwood would never play for United again, but new part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe opened the door for a potential return.
Reports in late February suggested Greenwood has 'no great desire' to play for United again and is 'reluctant' to return to Old Trafford. It was said Greenwood feels the club 'could have supported him better' over his case.
