O’Hara, who played at Molineux between 2011 and 2014, is accused of hitting out at the 16-year-old boy after Billericay Town's defeat to Leatherhead in April.

A spokesperson for Surrey Police. said: “A 31-year-old man has been summoned to court in relation to an assault on a teenage boy.

"The incident took place following a football match in Leatherhead on April 15. The man is due to appear at Guildford Magistrates Court on November 10.’’

O'Hara, aged 31, joined Wolves from Tottenham for £5million in June 2011 but became deeply unpopular with supporters during the club's fall from the Premier League into League One. He was released in November 2014.

He appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in January during his time out of the game. He joined non-league Billericay Town in March.
