Rihanna was spotted getting cozy with soccer player Karim Benzema on three separate occasions last week, sparking rumors of a romance between the singer and professional athlete.

Rihanna Dating Karim Benzema?

Benzema, 27, and Rihanna, 27, reportedly spent the entire week together, and were seen enjoying a performance by Fetty Wap in Los Angeles on June 10. The two were then spotted grabbing dinner together in Santa Monica on Saturday.

The singer and French soccer player were also spotted out clubbing in Holywood a few nights in a row.

Rihanna and Benzema arrived and left the clubs separately, and were reportedly always seen with a group of friends, but sources say the two were seen “cuddling” at the Fetty Wap show.

Who Is Karim Benzema?

Benzema currently plays with Real Madrid, but the French soccer player returned to his home country to play for the French in the 2014 World Cup. In fact, he was first linked to Rihanna when she wished him good luck via Twitter during the tournament.

Earlier in 2014, Benzema welcomed a baby girl with his on and off again girlfriend, Chloe, named Melia. The doting father occasionally posts photos of his daughter on Instagram.
