The alleged offence took place in Lambeth, south London, on 14 December.

He was arrested at Luton Airport on 30 January and charged last month.

Ibe, of Chislehurst, Bromley, south-east London, joined Liverpool in 2012 and made 58 first-team appearances before spells with Derby County, Birmingham City and AFC Bournemouth. He featured 92 times for Bournemouth between 2016 and 2020.

The former England under-21 international now plays for Lokomotiv Sofia in the Bulgarian First League, the country's top tier. He had spent the previous two years in non-league football before moving to the Bulgarian capital in November 2025.
