Former Manchester City defender, Benjamin Mendy, on Friday, broke down in tears after he was cleared of rape and attempted rape.
The 28-year-old was accused of carrying out s*x attacks on two ladies at his £4m mansion.
But Mendy was cleared after three hours of deliberation by a jury at Chester Crown Court.
The Frenchman became emotional and admitted he was “delighted” with the not-guilty verdicts.
Mendy had faced a retrial on one count of rape and one count of attempted rape during lockdown-busting parties.
He is now a free man but clubless after his City contract expired at the end of June.
Mendy played his last game for the Premier League champions in August 2021.
