A MILLWALL footballer has appeared at the Old Bailey over a gang killing.
Gavin Grant, 22, is accused of conspiracy to murder 24-year-old Jahmall Moore.
The dad-of-two died after being hit by four bullets as he sat in his car in Harlesden, North West London, last year.
Officers from Scotland Yard’s Operation Trident, which investigates murders in the black community, arrested Grant last week.
The striker, from Harrow, Middlesex, appeared at the Old Bailey on Tuesday and was bailed to reappear in November.
Cops believe the killing was part of a gang war that has claimed two lives.
Grant joined the South London League One side from Gillingham on a free transfer this summer.
Millwall are standing by their player, hailed as a promising talent, who has yet to play for the first team.
A club spokesman said: “Gavin strenuously denies the charge. He is not in breach of his contract and is continuing to train.”
