Renowned football agent Jonathan Barnett, currently under criminal investigation in London, is facing serious accusations of rape and torture, with allegations involving a so-called ‘sex slave.’ According to recent court documents, Barnett allegedly referred to the woman as his ‘slave,’ although he has denied all charges.

A woman, known in legal documents as ‘Jane Doe,’ has accused Barnett of trafficking her from Australia to the UK, claiming he raped her over 39 times. Barnett, who was named the world’s most powerful football agent by Forbes in 2019 due to his facilitation of over £1 billion in transfer deals, including Gareth Bale’s £90 million transfer from Tottenham to Real Madrid in 2013, is the subject of these accusations.

The civil lawsuit was filed in the United States in July, alleging that Barnett raped the woman in a London hotel in 2017 and continued to subject her to sexual assault and torture over a six-year period.

Legal papers obtained by the Telegraph reveal that Barnett admitted to paying the woman over £1 million to maintain her silence after their ‘consensual personal relationship’ ended.

Recent reports from the publication indicate that Barnett allegedly referred to the woman as his ‘slave’ in an email associated with his company.

In response, Barnett has enlisted the services of notable Hollywood entertainment lawyer Marty Singer to dismiss the civil suit. He continues to vehemently deny all allegations and has expressed confidence in being ‘entirely vindicated and exonerated.’

He said in a court statement last year: ‘When my relationship with plaintiff ended in or around September 2021, she threatened to publicly disclose the relationship unless I paid her significant sums of money.

‘As a result of those threats, I paid plaintiff for a number of years, ultimately paying her well in excess of £1,000,000.

‘To my knowledge, other than during periods when plaintiff may have been travelling outside of the UK, all payments I made to plaintiff were made to her in England,’ Barnett, whose offices reside in London, added.

‘All personal meetings, interactions and communications between me and plaintiff took place solely in London. The location of all hotels, apartments or other places where plaintiff and I met during the entirety of our relationship are located solely in London.’

Barnett, alongside co-defendants the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) – which denies any business connection with the claimant – has filed motions to dismiss the claim in recent months.

The woman, in new documents, counters CAA’s claim that a US court should not be able to give a ruling due to most of Barnett’s work being in London.

Ms Doe’s filing includes: ‘As alleged in the complaint and confirmed with Doe’s affidavit evidence, after the purchase of ICM’s purchase of Stellar in 2020, Stellar corporate leadership, including its CEO and a majority of its board of directors, were based in its Los Angeles office.

‘Essentially, Barnett used his control of Stellar to turn it into a venture that trafficked vulnerable women. ICM joined this venture when it purchased Stellar and continued to endorse, support, and promote Barnett despite having or should have learned of his crimes. The CAA Defendants did the same after the ICM–CAA Merger.’

The response to CAA’s claim from Ms Doe includes emails from Barnett, with one, from February 2021, reading: ‘Let your master know when slave is ready back in position.’

In the initial complaint, she also alleges that Barnett ‘directed Ms Doe to “hunt” for additional sex slaves in Los Angeles,’ which is denied by Barnett.
