Exeter City striker Jevani Brown has admitted assaulting a woman in the city centre.
Brown, 28, from Luton, pleaded guilty to the assault charge at Exeter Magistrates Court on Thursday.
He pleaded not guilty to a second charge of assaulting another woman on Queen Street in Exeter on 2 February.
The court heard Brown would go on trial in July for the assault charge he denies.

The 28-year-old had been the club's top scorer this season with 14 goals.
Exeter City said it would not comment further on the matter.
