AFP, Athens :
Manchester United captain Harry Maguire will appear before a Greek prosecutor Saturday to face charges of allegedly assaulting police on the island of Mykonos, with his lawyer promising a swift resolution.
“Everything is going well. Maguire denies the charges. If all goes well, we’ll be done (today),” Constantinos Darivas told Greek sports website gazzetta.gr.
Darivas added that the England centre-back was in “fine condition” despite spending two nights in detention since his Thursday night arrest.
Maguire will be taken before a prosecutor before midday.
The case is being heard on the island of Syros, the administrative hub of the Cycladic island group that includes Mykonos.
The œ80-million (88-million-euro) defender was arrested early Friday after what Greek police described as an “altercation” between two groups of British tourists on Mykonos.
