Rubiales announced his resignation Sunday in a message posted on X, formerly known as Twitter
Rubiales kissed Jenni Hermoso on the lips without her consent during the awards ceremony after Spain beat England to win the title on Aug. 20 in Sydney.
Spanish state prosecutors accused Rubiales of sexual assault and coercion for kissing a player on the lips without her consent after the final, the country’s prosecutors’ office said Friday, two days after Hermoso formally accused him of sexual assault. He had already been suspended from his job by FIFA for his conduct on the Aug. 20 final in Sydney, Australia.
