Benjamin Mendy, 28, and his friend Louis Saha Matturie, had been accused of raping women at the player’s home in Prestbury, Cheshire, and at a Manchester flat.<\/p>\n

During a six-month trial, prosecutors told the jury Mr Mendy was a “predator” who turned the pursuit of women for sex into a game. Stated the BBC<\/a><\/p>\n
