Collingwood's Jordan De Goey has reportedly been embroiled in another off-field incident, with reports from the United States that he and a friend allegedly groped a woman and then assaulted her friend at a bar in New York.
The New York Daily News reported that De Goey spent Saturday night in a cell after an alleged incident at a rooftop bar in Manhattan.
According to police, De Goey and a friend, Luke Dyson, approached a woman on the dance floor and groped her. After a male friend of the woman tried to intervene, Dyson allegedly stuck him in the face with a glass bottle.
"Collingwood is aware of a report involving Jordan De Goey," a statement from the club read.
"The club is attempting to contact Jordan, who is in the USA, to determine the facts of the matter. The club will not be in a position to comment further until it has done so."
The 25-year-old midfielder recently had a previous indecent assault charge withdrawn, and Victoria Police has been ordered to pay his legal costs.
The charge related to an allegation of indecent assault of a woman in Kew on June 21, 2015.
