Janet Potter, from Crown Prosecution Service North West, said they had authorised Greater Manchester Police to charge Mr Greenwood with attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
The alleged rape is said to have occurred on 22 October 2021, while the alleged assault is said to have taken place last December.
The charge of controlling and coercive behaviour relates to a period of time since November 2018.
Ms Potter said the charges were made after specialist rape prosecutors reviewed of a file of evidence from police. This comes after the footballer was arrested in January after images and videos were posted online.
It is thought that Greenwood breached the conditions of his bail after contacting his alleged victim.
He faces allegations that he raped, sexually assaulted and threatened to kill a then 18-year-old student.
Greenwood is being interviewed after officers descended on his £15,000-a-month home in Bowden, Manchester, this morning, The Sun reports.
The football star’s bail was extended at a private hearing at Manchester and Salford Magistrates’ Court in June.
He was later quizzed on suspicion of making threats to kill as he spent three nights in cells at a Greater Manchester police station.
Greenwood was released on conditional bail on February 2, which has been extended twice since.
However, police did not specify when it would run out after the closed court hearing in June.
