NY Times: 'No USA for Juve in ICC over risk Cristiano Ronaldo faces custody'
However, Juventus will not be playing any matches in the American venues; instead remaining purely in Asia for it's duration. This is because, as the NY Times reports, there is a real risk that Cristiano Ronaldo could be detained or taken into custody in the USA; after investigations still remain into his supposed sexual assault of Kathryn Mayorga. Because of the risk that police could detail the forward, Juventus will be avoiding the USA - playing in the likes of Singapore and China instead.
Mayorga claims that Ronaldo sexually assaulted her in a hotel in Las Vegas in 2009 and the former teacher was paid $375,000 to keep silent on the matter in an agreement.
