Cisse admits assaulting teenager
Premiership star Djibril Cisse today admitted assaulting a 15-year-old boy.
The youth claimed he was struck on the head by the Liverpool striker at a park in the east London Docklands area.
It is understood that Cisse was filming an advert featuring a mocked-up England versus France match when the youngster approached him as though about to shake his hand.
When Cisse went to return the greeting the teenager pulled his hand away and put his thumb to his nose and wiggled his fingers.
The 24-year-old Frenchman, who joined the Champions League victors in 2004, accepted a caution at a police station in London.
A spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Police said: “A man in his 20s attended by appointment an east London police station in connection with the investigation into the alleged assault of a 15-year-old boy in Broomfield Street E14 on September 30.
“He was given a caution for common assault. No further action will be taken.”
The caution came after Cisse celebrated double good news yesterday. He announced that his new wife Jude was pregnant and scored the winning goal in Liverpool’s Champions League match against Anderlecht.
