Dundee United footballer David Goodwillie has been charged with rape.

The incident is alleged to have happened in the early hours of January 2 this year when a 24-year-old woman said she was sexually attacked in Armadale, West Lothian.

The 21-year-old striker has been released on bail and is due to appear in court at a later date. A report is being sent to the Procurator Fiscal.

A spokeswoman for Lothian and Borders Police said: “A 21-year-old man has been charged in connection with an alleged serious sexual assault on a 24-year-old woman in Armadale on the 2nd of January.

“The individual concerned has been released to appear at Livingston Sheriff Court at a later date.

“Inquiries into the incident are ongoing, and no further comment can be made at this time.”

Dundee United refused to comment.

Although David Robertson, 24, was questioned at the same time as Mr Goodwillie, no further charges have been brought.

Mr Goodwillie is one of Scottish football's brightest stars, with 11 goals this season, and is valued by his club at £1.5m.

Dundee United rejected a £1m bid for the player from Rangers, who are looking to replace Scotland internationalist Kenny Miller.
