West Ham United defender Calum Davenport, 26, denied assaulting his sister Cara, 28, in court today.
Davenport pleaded "not guilty" at Bedford Magistrates Court in relation to accusations of causing actual bodily harm to Cara.
The Hammers centre-back was stabbed in the legs in August, and spent six days in intensive care amid fears that he would be prevented from playing football again.
Davenport was charged with actual bodily harm at the end of October. He has maintained his innocence since the accusation.
Cara's boyfriend, Worrell Whitehurst, 25, has been charged with attacking both Davenport and the player's mother, Kim Stupple, 49, while the pair were in the driveway of Kim's home in Bedford. Both will appear at Luton Crown Court on Monday November 16.
Davenport returned to West Ham last month to begin light training after recovering from the ordeal that left him with a 15-inch scar.
The case continues.
