Former Paris St-Germain midfielder Aminata Diallo has signed for Levante just over three months since she was accused of assaulting her former teammate Kheira Hamraoui.
Diallo, 27, was charged with aggravated assault in September after being detained by police in connection with an attack on Hamraoui by two masked strangers in 2021.
After a team lunch in November of that year, Hamraoui was traveling home as a passenger in a car driven by Diallo, before she was dragged out of the vehicle and hit in the legs with an iron bar.

Diallo, 27, was charged with aggravated assault in September after being detained by police in connection with an attack on Hamraoui (R) by two masked strangers.
Hamraoui, 32, was forced to undergo stitches in her arms and legs at the hospital after the attack.
Diallo was detained at the time of the incident before being released without charge and, after being detained again 10 months later, was released again under court supervision. She still denies any involvement in the incident.
During that time, PSG opted to release Diallo at the expiration of his contract in 2022, but have now put pen to paper on a deal at Levante.
The Spanish club confirmed this Monday that a short-term contract has been agreed with the player until the end of the season, which also includes the option of one more year.
Diallo was arrested at the time of the incident before being released without charge.
Diallo spent six years at PSG before her departure last year, winning the French Cup in 2018 and also reaching the Women’s Champions League final.
In the past three years, he has also enjoyed loan spells in the United States with the Utah Royals and in Spain with Atlético Madrid.
At the time of his second arrest in September, a report by the Crime Prevention Brigade of the Versailles judicial police, excerpts from which were published by the French newspaper the parisianclaims Diallo developed a ‘real hatred’ towards Hamraoui, with a message allegedly found on his phone saying he wished ‘everyone pain’, referencing his PSG teammates.
A Versailles police report later claimed that he viewed Hamraoui as an “obstacle” to his career.
“He considered her an obstacle to his own sports career,” the report says.
He also goes on to suggest that it has been a ‘slow psychological drift that has become, so to speak, pathological’.
Police are said to have tapped Diallo’s phone and the court report alleges that she searched for a “cocktail of dangerous drugs” and “how to break a kneecap” before the attack.
Meanwhile, Hamraoui is still in the books for PSG and has racked up 10 appearances this season.
