Liverpool FC striker Djibril Cisse was cautioned by police for assaulting his pregnant wife, police said today.

Liverpool FC striker Djibril Cisse was cautioned by police for assaulting his pregnant wife, police said today.

The 24-year-old French international, who married wife Jude last June, was arrested at his home in Frodsham, Cheshire, last night.

He was taken to a police station nearby and questioned before accepting a caution for common assault.

A Cheshire Constabulary spokesman said: “At around 9.40pm on the evening of Thursday 26th January, police attended an address on Manley Road in Frodsham after receiving an allegation of assault on a 30-year-old woman.

“As a result of police inquiries, a 24-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of section 39 assault.

“The man was interviewed at a police station and cautioned in respect of the assault.”

Last October, the flamboyant forward announced that he and his wife were expecting their first child together in spring of this year. The couple both have children from previous relationships.

In the same month, he admitted assaulting a 15-year-old boy in a London park after the teenager mocked him while he filmed an advert.

Liverpool FC was unavailable for comment today.
