A married Premier League star and England ace has gagged his secret lover with a £20,000 payment and a legal Non-Disclosure Agreement.
His actions were condemned as 'intimidating behaviour' by a women's group, according to the Sun.
The married footballer reportedly made the single mother sign the Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and paid her £20,000 hush money.
The affair reportedly started in 2019 and involved several hotel visits by the footballer, who played for the English national team, and the single mother, both before and after he married his wife.
Teresa Parker, communications chief at Women's Aid, told the Sun: 'It is horrendous for a woman to be faced with intimidating behaviour from a football player, whereby she feels forced to sign an NDA and delete photos and messages.
