Embattled Cristiano Ronaldo
was reportedly sighted in company of his company for the first time since after
his rap'e allegation.
The 33-year-old recently
joined the Italian champions in the summer in a deal valued around £100
million.
As a result of his red card
in his side's 2-0 win over Valencia in their Champions League opening fixture
last month, he was at the stands to watch Juve beat Young Boys 3-0 at the
Allianz Arena on Tuesday night.
SunSport reported that
Ronaldo's girlfriend Georgina RodrÃguez, son Cristiano Jr and mum Dolores
Aveiro were also at the stadium with the forward on the night.
However, it was the first
time he was seen with his partner since the rap'e claims against him were made
public on Saturday.
The former Manchester
United superstar went missing from training at Juve's Turin base as he rested
following the ban — while battling claims he rap'ed a model in Las Vegas in
2009.
Kathryn Mayorga claims the
former Real Madrid star attacked attacked her at a Sin City hotel after meeting
her at a nightclub. according to the Sun.
Ronaldo on his own part has
vehemently denied the allegations which emerged in German magazine Der Spiegel.
Ms Mayorga claims he
attacked her in the penthouse suite of the Palms Casin'o Resort — before
apologising and saying he is "usually a gentleman", explosive court
papers allege.
Ms Mayorga took legal
action in 2010 and reportedly received a £287,000 settlement forbidding her
from repeating the allegations — a clause she is now seeking to overturn.
Yesterday it emerged that
Las Vegas police have re-opened the investigation into the alleged se'xual
assault.
Portugese ace Ronaldo
branded the claims "fake news" as his lawyers said they would seek
"substantial damages" against Der Spiegel.
Lawyers for Ronaldo and Ms
Mayorga have not responded to requests for comment from The Sun.
Cristiano Ronaldo is set to
drag German publication Der Spiegel to court over “blatantly illegal” claims
that he had unlawful intercourse with an American woman nine years ago.
SunSport quoting Reuters
claim Kathryn Mayorga told the publication that the Portuguese star assaulted
her se'xually back in a Las Vegas hotel in 2009.
However, the report added
that the 33-year-old Ronaldo has continued to deny these claims insisting, it
was a consensual activity.
