Football legend George Best has been arrested and bailed on suspicion of indecently assaulting a young girl.

The former Manchester United and Northern Ireland star, 59, is alleged to have attacked the girl, who is aged under 13, last month in Surrey.

A spokeswoman for Surrey Police said: "We have received an allegation of indecent assault against a 59-year-old man who was arrested on 9 June."

Mr Best was also held on that date over an allegation he assaulted a woman.

I don't know how much of it will end up being true but some of todays football ' stars ' think they're above the law, are God's gift, and think they can get away with it. About time they were brought down a peg or 2 IMO

Trouble is by the time the truth comes out careers are ruined and sometimes the truth never comes out at all.
