Tottenham Hotspur star Yves Bissouma has allegedly had £800k swiped following a suspected fraud at VIP Coutts bank.
The midfielder suffered the losses between September 2022 and June 2024 which led him to contact police, according to The Sun.
The 29-year-old, who cost Spurs £30million in 2022 from Brighton, is the alleged victim in two separate cases investigated by the Met.
Maurice Gomes, 31, was initially arrested and was charged with two counts of fraud by false representation in October.
The maximum sentence for each offence is ten years.
Court records obtained by the newspaper show Gomes is alleged to have "dishonestly" transferred Bissouma's cash to himself without the Premier League star’s "knowledge or consent."
Prosecutors claim Gomes was behind allegedly illicit bank transfers totalling £834,334.40 "to make a personal gain."
The man’s link to Bissouma, said to be paid £50,000-a-week by the North London club, is not known.
The defendant, who lives in a £1.4million, six-bedroom house in Enfield, North London, is due to appear at Highbury Corner Magistrates' court on Friday.
Mali international Bissouma, will likely have to give evidence if it goes to trial.
A source said: "This has been deeply hurtful for Yves. It’s been a tough year for him on and off the pitch, and this hanging over his head will have contributed to that."
Bissouma also had his £255,000 watch stolen in Cannes in the summer.
He has made 100 appearances for the north London but has been frozen out since August.
Coutts declined to comment.
