LONDON: Steven Gerrard, the captain of English Premier League leaders Liverpool, was charged Tuesday with assault and affray over an alleged bar brawl, police told AFP.
The soccer star, 28, was charged along with two other men who were also arrested early Monday after an incident at a late-night bar in Southport, north of Liverpool in northwest England.
The venue's disc jockey, a 34-year-old local man, required hospital treatment after suffering facial injuries.
