Ronaldo claimed that such a crime was against everything he is and believes in. Ms Mayorga reportedly said she was assaulted by the football star at Las Vegas nightclub in 2009. She further gave an extensive detail in her interview with German Magazine, Der Spiegel about filing a report with Las Vegas police shortly after the alleged incident. However, the following year, there were reports of her reaching an out-of-court settlement with Ronaldo involving a $375,000 payment and agreeing never to go public with the allegations.
