A former professional footballer from Thurrock, Essex, is due in court accused of a string of sex offences.
Tyrell Robinson, 22, of South Ockendon, has been charged with engaging in penetrative sexual activity with a child, one count of making an indecent image of a child and two counts of distributing an indecent image of a child.
The 22-year-old played for League Two side Bradford City before being sacked by the club over the accusations in February this year.
He appeared at Bradford Magistrates’ Court on June 2 via a Skype link where he signalled to confirm his name, date of birth and address.
Robinson is accused of sexually touching a 14-year-old girl in Bradford in August 2018, as well as being accused of making and distributing an indecent image of a child via Snapchat on the same day.
Robinson is also charged with distributing an indecent photograph of a child in a video sent by WhatsApp in December 2017.
The ex-winger will appear at Bradford Crown Court today (Tuesday, June 16).
