Stoke City striker Ricardo Fuller has been arrested following an incident at a nightclub, the Premier League side confirmed on Monday morning.

Fuller, 30, was arrested on suspicion of assault in the early hours of Sunday morning and bailed by police pending further inquiries after an incident in a nightspot in Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent.

Stoke have confirmed that Fuller was arrested but are making no further comment on the matter.

A Staffordshire Police spokesman told the Stoke Sentinel: "At 1am on Sunday an incident occurred at JFK nightclub in Trinity Street, following which a 30-year-old male was arrested on suspicion of assault. He has been bailed, pending further inquiries."
