Police place travel ban on unnamed official amid probe on Ronaldo's absence from Seoul match

'호날두 노쇼' 고발사건 1명 출국금지…축구연맹도 조사

Police have placed a travel ban on an unnamed official, who is being investigated over the recent controversy surrounding footballer Cristiano Ronaldo's no-show during an exhibition match.
In a press briefing earlier today, it wasn't specified which organization the official was affiliated with.
Police also told reporters that two other officials from Korea's top football league governing body have been questioned over the matter.
Local fans were outraged when Ronaldo stayed on the bench throughout the match against the K-League All-Stars in Seoul, citing muscle fatigue.
The football body said the Juventus forward was contractually obligated to play at least 45 minutes and requested an apology from the Italian club.
Last week, a South Korean attorney filed fraud charges against Juventus,... and the Korean marketing firm that organised the match.
