Chelsea star Sam Kerr has arrived at Kingston Crown Court ahead of her delayed trial for allegedly racially abusing a police officer almost two years ago.
The Australian international is alleged to have insulted, threatened, or caused alarm or distress to a police office while returning home in a taxi following a night out with her fiancee Kristie Mewis on January 30, 2023.
Kerr is set to plead not guilty when the case goes to trial nearly nine months after its preliminary hearing was cancelled.
The footballer will attempt to see the charge dismissed on Tuesday in a bid to avoid next month's trial.
