Brazilian model Najila Trindade accused the 27-year-old striker of raping her in a Paris hotel in May. He denies the accusation and says their relations were consensual.
The Associated Press doesn't name alleged sexual assault victims unless they make their identities public, which Trindade did in several interviews.
