Tottenham defender Ledley King has apologised to
manager Harry Redknapp following his arrest for an alleged assault
outside a London nightclub.
Having been bailed on Sunday after spending several hours
in police custody, King issued the following statement on the
club's website: "I sincerely regret that a night out with friends
went too far. I have apologised to Harry and I fully appreciate
that, as a professional footballer, I have a duty to behave in a
responsible manner.
"I am assisting the police with their enquiries. Anyone who
knows me, knows that much of what has been suggested is totally out
of character.
"I am keen to resolve this as soon as possible and concentrate
on my football. I shall be putting my all into ensuring I give of
my best for the remaining fixtures."
