Promes’ lawyer did not immediately reply to a request for comment from Reuters and his office’s phone went unanswered after business hours on Tuesday.
Dutch newspaper Het Parool quoted his lawyer as saying he would comment on the case during a pro forma hearing scheduled for Monday, which news agency ANP said Promes is not expected to attend.
Former Ajax Amsterdam and Sevilla winger Promes, who was capped 50 times for his country, is also facing charges of assault in the Netherlands, after he was arrested in connection with a July 2020 stabbing in the Dutch town of Abcoude.

A hearing in this case is also scheduled for Monday.
