Olympiakos FC player Ruben Semedo was arrested for domestic violence after a complaint was made by a 28-year-old Portuguese woman.

The woman claims that the Portuguese international hit her during an altercation last night and filed an official lawsuit against the Olympiacos centre back.

According to reports, the incident happened on Monday night in Glyfada, where the footballer lives. Semedo’s compatriot called the police at 10.30 pm and said that her partner had physically attacked her in an argument, and then took her cell phone and threw her out of the house. She claimed that the couple had started fighting at 20.30 in the evening.

Police arrived at the scene and found the 28-year-old waiting for them outside the house. Semedo was then taken into custody and was released at 1 am.

Meanwhile, in the latest development, his 28-year-old partner, after filing the complaint to the Alimos Police Department about the attack from the well-known football player, and following his arrest, retracted her initial allegations and talks about a “simple scene of jealousy”.
