Junya Ito accused of sexual assault in Japan. Two women claim to have been abused with alcohol by the Reims striker.

The player denies non-consensual sex. The Osaka prefectural police are already in charge of the case. In the meantime, the player is still with the Japan group which has just eliminated Bahrain (1-3) in the round of 16 of the Asian Nations Cup. Japan will face, in the quarter-finals this Saturday, the winner of the match between Iran and Syria.
