Former Celtic star Anthony Stokes has denied stalking his ex-girlfriend.
The striker, 32, is alleged to have contacted Eilidh Scott by repeatedly sending her emails and text messages in which he swore and uttered offensive remarks.
He is also accused of making telephone calls and sending messages to her parents George and Rachel Scott in which he made offensive and inappropriate remarks about their daughter.
Stokes is further alleged to have breached orders not to contact Miss Scott or her mother between November and December 2019.
Prosecutors also claim he breached a ruling keeping him from Miss Scott for four years by sending her an email message in March last year.
The charges also state he allegedly broke bail conditions and the terms of a non-harassment order which was handed out in September 2019.
Stokes, of Glasgow, appeared at Hamilton Sheriff Court where he denied all allegations against him.
He had missed an earlier hearing after self-isolating with Covid-19 symptoms.
Michael Gallen, defending, said: "He pleads not guilty to all matters."
The case was continued until May by Sheriff Linda Nicolson with his trial expected to get underway the following month.
Stokes' bail conditions ban him from contacting Miss Scott or her parents in any way and is also banned from entering two streets in Shotts, Lanarkshire, where they stay.
Stokes won seven trophies in six seasons at Parkhead and netted twice in Hibs' 3-2 Scottish Cup win over Rangers in 2016.
