"Chesterfield" striker Ched Evans, sentenced in 2012 for rape, was finally acquitted yesterday in Cardiff city court.
Evans was supposed to spend five years in prison, but he was released at the end of 2014.
His case then reached the Court of Appeal, where it was reviewed for 10 months because new information emerged that was not raised in the first trial.
In 2015, Evans was already close to returning to football. However, "Oldham Athletic," playing in the English third division, could not sign a contract with him due to threats from fans and sponsors.
A little earlier, with 170 thousand people signing a petition, he was banned from training at the "Sheffield United" base.
During this season, in 8 matches in the "League One" championship, Evans scored four goals and made one assist.
