Jerome Boateng Fined £1.5m For Assaulting Ex-Girlfriend

Jerome Boateng Fined £1.5m For Assaulting Ex-Girlfriend

Former Bayern Munich defender Jerome Boateng has been fined £1.5m for assaulting ex-girlfriend by the Munich regional court.

Having avoided a potential five-year jail term for biting and punching Senler, Jerome Boateng has been hit with the largest financial damages. 

Boateng reportedly bit Senler three years ago during a holiday in the Caribbean as he spat blood in her face and punching her in the kidney. 

In giving evidence, Boateng's former partner narrated how he "pressed against my eye with his thumb, bit me in the head and pulled me to the floor by my hair."

Senler added that Boateng who is 1.90 metres (6ft 2in) tall, continously insulted her and hit her on the back with "one strong punch and several light punches. That's when I lost my breath for a moment."

But the new Lyon centre-back denied the allegations, insisting that his ex-girlfriend rather attacked him.

Boateng was convicted of causing dangerous bodily harm by judge Kai Dingerdissen. 

After the verdict by judge Kai, the bulky defender hurried out of the courtroom, surrounded by bodyguards and drove off in a black SUV, which was pursued by photographers.

Though charges were raised against Boateng before a district court on 11 February 2019 but the trial was delayed for over two years. 

The former Manchester City defender after a decade at Bayern Munich has joined Lyon on a free transfer this summer.

The World Cup winner in his stint with Bayern Munich won nine Bundesliga titles and two Champions Leagues.

Boateng is expected to make his maiden appearance for Lyon after joining on a two-year deal on 12 September when Lyon host Strasbourg.
