Several media houses have sensationalised Cristiano Ronaldo's 'bromance' with Moroccan kickboxer Badr Hari.
According to Spanish media, officials at Real Madrid officials are concerned about how Cristiano's lifestyle is affecting his performances on the pitch.
They have claimed that the Real Madrid forward has been flying frequently to North Africa after training sessions in his private jet to meet the boxer.
According to a newspaper, Daniel Riolo, a contributor on French television show, hinted that the pair were more than friends.
The Portuguese captain also shared a series of photos on a holiday he took with Hari and was even pictured lifted in the boxer's arms with the caption "Just married. Always there to pick you up, bro."
In one picture the pair were having candlelit traditional Moroccan meal.
These claims are made despite Ronaldo being linked with a number of beautiful models throughout his football career.
Ronaldo’s love of fashion, accessories and grooming has led people to question his sexuality in the past - and he has been voted a gay icon by several publications.
Earlier in 2010, the 30-year-old had praised Portugal's decision to allow gay marriage and said "We must respect the choices of each other, because, after all, all citizens should have the same rights and responsibilities."
