Footballer Jack Diamond has had his loan at Lincoln City terminated with immediate effect- after charges have been brought against him by the CPS.

Northumbria police say the 23 year old, from Washington, has been charged with 2 sexual assault charges and is expected to appear in court later this year.

His parent club Sunderland have suspended him.

Sunderland released a statement saying:

"Sunderland has been notified that criminal charges have been brought against Jack Diamond by the Crown Prosecution Service."

"As this matter is subject to a legal process, the club will not be making any further statement at this time".
