New photo shows Spanish FA president lifting World Cup star on his shoulder

Luis Rubiales faces mounting pressure after photos emerged of the Spanish FA president lifting Athenea del Castillo over his shoulder during their Women's World Cup celebrations.

Rubiales is at the centre of the World Cup 'kiss-gate' scandal after kissing Spanish women's player Jennifer Hermoso on the mouth without consent after Spain beat England 1-0 in the World Cup final on Sunday.

He has refused to resign despite being hit with a sexual assault probe as one football chief launched a criminal complaint in the wake of his actions towards Hermoso.

He eventually apologised but Hermoso rejected the chance to appear in his apology video despite him begging "My position is at stake, do it for my daughters".

Spanish outlet El Confidencial has reported that Rubiales is also facing accusations that he took a Mexican woman on a six-day work-funded holiday to New York.

He is also alleged to have harassed and humiliated a female colleague, who claimed he asked her about the colour of her underwear and about wearing 'knee pads' in meetings when they worked together.
