Amid calls for the chief to resign, which he has protested, the CF Pachuca striker has accused him of sexual assault during the Women&#8217;s World Cup final celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>Spanish outlet Cadena SER have claimed that Hermoso has stepped up legal efforts by making an official complaint to the prosecutor&#8217;s office on Tuesday, as controversy has overshadowed the 33-year-old&#8217;s success with her team-mates, beating England in the final of the Women&#8217;s World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>Rubiales has insisted that the kiss was consensual while Hermoso has denied that claim and suggested otherwise, as Rubiales has been provisionally suspended from his post by FIFA.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint means that Rubiales could face criminal charges if found guilty, after Spanish prosecutors opened a preliminary investigation into whether the incident amounts to a crime of sexual assault on August 29.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> JUST IN <\/strong> <strong>Luis Rubiales&#8217; mum &#8216;taken to hospital&#8217; on third day of hunger strike[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Jenni-Hermoso-Luis-Rubiales-kiss-4946291.jpg?r=1694008303816\"><\/p>\n<p>After Hermoso&#8217;s complaint that was made in person, the public ministry will present an official complaint soon against Rubiales.
