Former England international footballer Andy Carroll has been charged with breaching a non-molestation order.
Carroll, who previously played for clubs such as Liverpool and Newcastle, was arrested in April for an alleged offence that occurred in March.
He is due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court on 4 February, following an adjournment from an earlier scheduled date.
A non-molestation order is a UK court injunction typically issued to prevent an individual from contacting another person.
Breaching this type of order can lead to penalties ranging from a fine to a maximum of five years in prison.
