Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo has been accused of slamming a 14-year-old boy's mobile phone into the ground after last season's Everton defeat.
A 37-year-old man took to social media to apologize to his young fans after an incident in April.
"We can confirm that a 37-year-old man voluntarily attended and was carefully interviewed in connection with the allegations of assault and criminal damage," a police statement said Wednesday.
“The allegations relate to incidents after the Everton v Manchester United football game at Goodison Park on Saturday 9 April. The case is now closed."
Video footage shows Ronaldo angrily slapping the mobile phone out of the boys' hands as they walk through a tunnel. The situation is reflected.
According to the boy's mother, he had bruises on his hands and a shattered mobile phone screen.
Ronaldo returned to the club from Juventus a year ago, but he is reportedly seeking a move from Trafford.
