Liverpool Defender Glen Johnson Faces Police Probe After Nightclub Incident


Liverpool right-back Glen Johnson could be investigated by police after allegations of an assault outside a west London nightclub at the weekend.

The Liverpool Daily Post reports that a man made the allegation against the Reds' star in a police station in the capital on Sunday, apparently claiming that Johnson had assaulted him outside the Movida club in Argyll Street at around 4am that day.

The victim claimed to have been punched. He apparently suffered very minor injuries to his arm, chest and face.

Police have reportedly confirmed that they will be looking closely into the incident before deciding whether there are sufficient grounds for charges to be brought.

"There have been no arrests," a Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed.

Johnson had been in the south of England following the Reds' disappointing defeat at Portsmouth on Saturday.
