Luis Rubiales, the former head of Spain's football federation, has been convicted of sexual assault for kissing player Jenni Hermoso without her consent, and he faces a fine of EUR10,800 (PS8,942) as decreed by the High Court of Spain.
While Rubiales was acquitted of charges related to coercion-specifically, allegations that he attempted to pressure Hermoso into claiming the kiss was consensual-the ruling did impose significant restrictions on his behaviour towards her.
