Police in Las Vegas have issued a warrant for a DNA sample from Cristiano Ronaldo as part of their investigation into the rape allegations made against the Juventus forward.
The 33‑year‑old's lawyer, Peter S. Christiansen, told BBC Sport it was a "very standard request".
The Wall Street Journal says the warrant was recently sent to the court system in Italy.
