West Ham footballer Ravel Morrison has been remanded in custody after two women were assaulted.
Mr Morrison, 21, of Urmston, appeared before Manchester and Salford Magistrates' Court accused of attacking a 19-year old woman outside a bar in Manchester on Sunday.
He is further charged with assaulting her and a second woman, aged 39, at an address in Salford hours later.
His next hearing is on 7 August before Manchester and Salford magistrates.

A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said: "At about 3.20am on Sunday police were called to an address on Alexandra Road, Peel Green, Salford, following reports a 19-year-old woman and a 39-year-old woman had been assaulted.
"Officers attended and established the young woman had also been assaulted outside a bar in Manchester city centre earlier that evening and a 21-year-old man was subsequently arrested at a later date."
The midfielder was widely tipped to become a Manchester United regular as one of the club's best home-grown prospects in their youth teams.
He was sold by former boss Sir Alex Ferguson to West Ham for £650,000 in January 2012.
He has since been loaned by West Ham to QPR and Birmingham City.
The 21-year-old has won four England Under-21 caps.
West Ham have declined to comment.
