Spanish police say they have arrested Atletico Madrid
defender Lucas Hernandez for allegedly hitting his wife. Hernandez is considered one of Atletico's most promising
young talents.
Atletico Madrid centre-back Lucas Hernandez has been detained
in custody Spanish police have confirmed to Goal.
The 20-year-old was arrested at 2:30am local time on Friday
morning after the wife was hospitalised, although her injuries are not thought
to be life-threatening.
Hernandez, a France Under-21 international, is expected in
court in Majadahonda - a district
northwest of Madrid - on Friday for a hearing and accused of an offence of
gender violence.
Reports in Spain suggest his partner is yet to file a
complaint as she is waiting to consult a lawyer.
Should the judge consider a serious crime to have been
committed, a criminal proceeding could begin against the player, while a
restraining order could be placed on the Marseille-born man.
Hernandez has played 11 times for Atletico so far this
season, having made his debut for the capital club in the Copa del Rey against
L’Hospitalet in December 2014.
His brother, Theo, a left-back, is also on the books of the
Vicente Calderon, but is currently on loan at Alaves.
Atletico Madrid are yet to comment on the incident.
