Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo To Take Legal Action Against TV Programme Over Party Claims The Portuguese star has denied that he hosted any parties in the build-up to El Clasico and is to take legal action against the TV programme that started the rumour...
Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has announced that he will take legal action against a Spanish TV programme that suggested the Portuguese attacker organised parties both before and after his side's El Clasico to Barcelona.

"It has come to my attention that in the programme 'Salva-Me' on Spanish television channel Telecinco, there were references made to alleged parties held at my house," reads an official statement from Ronaldo.

"One on Friday, the eve of the game against Barcelona, which reportedly lasted until five in the morning, and one on Saturday night itself, interspersed with several comments which were intolerably depreciating to my dignity and my professionalism.

"I categorically refute such accusations, which are completely false and delusional. There is really not even one iota of truth in them. With a game the next day, it is more than obvious that I spent Friday night resting and on Saturday night my spirit was anything but festive.

"Considering the gravity of the charges, I have instructed my lawyers to, without any reflection, use all legal means to restore the truth of the matter."
