Former West Ham United footballer Saïd Benrahma pleaded guilty to two counts of owning dangerously out of control dogs in October, but the fine and compensation have not been paid.
The dogs, both XL bullies, escaped from his home in Hornchurch, east London, and attacked a golden retriever called Bailey and his owner Luke Rehbein in July 2023.
Both were injured with Bailey needing vet treatment.
Benrahma was fined £10,000 and ordered to pay Rehbein £2,500 in compensation plus £495 in kennel costs at a hearing at Willesden Magistrates’ Court in October. Benrahma appeared via video-link from a car in Saudi Arabia.
More than six months on, Rehbein says he has yet to receive any of the compensation.
