Wolves have released a statement on social media denying that two of their players are the Premier League stars arrested for rape charges.

Two unnamed footballers, who are both 19 years old and play at the same club, were arrested over the weekend after the alleged victim reported the allegations to the police.

The incident is said to have taken place on Friday evening, with the victim's complaint filed hours later.

One player was reportedly spoken to by the police on suspicion of assault and aiding and abetting a rape at his club's stadium before he was formally arrested and detained overnight.
