EX-FOOTY chief Luis Rubiales has been hit with a restraining order that bans him from contacting Jenni Hermoso or going near her.
The order was imposed by a judge today after an hour-long hearing at the Audiencia Nacional court in Madrid over the kiss to the World Cup-winning player that sparked outrage.
Spain's former FA president was banned from coming within 200 meters of Hermoso or trying to communicate with her.
It comes after Hermoso alleged she and her relatives were put under pressure by Rubiales and his entourage to say that she approved what happened.
Rubiales, 46, looked glum today as he left the court- where he denied any wrongdoing.
He was hauled into court to be quizzed by a judge after Hermoso filed a formal criminal complaint.
Neither Rubiales nor his defence lawyer, Olga Tubau, spoke to the media outside the court.
Rubiales sensationally quit as FA chief and UEFA vice-president amid the scandal.
But he remains unrepentant and has insisted he would “defend his innocence”.
Judge de Jorge launched a criminal investigation into suspected sexual assault after a formal complaint was made by prosecutors.
