Ronaldo is currently at the centre of rape allegations dating back nine years. A woman named Kathryn Mayorga has accused the footballer of raping her in a Las Vegas hotel room in June, 2009.
Mayorga's allegations were published in Der Spiegel last week and were initially branded as "fake news" by Ronaldo in a subsequent Instagram post.
Ronaldo later released a statement denying the allegations in full.
"I firmly deny the accusations being issued against me," Ronaldo wrote in a Twitter post. "Rape is an abominable crime that goes against everything that I am and believe in.
"Keen as I may be to clear my name, I refuse to feed the media spectacle created by people seeking to promote themselves at my expense.
"My clear conscious will thereby allow me to await with tranquility the results of any and all investigations."
In a statement to JOE, EA Sports said: "We have seen the concerning report that details allegations against Cristiano Ronaldo. We are closely monitoring the situation, as we expect cover athletes and ambassadors to conduct themselves in a manner that is consistent with EA's values."
UPDATE: As of Saturday, Ronaldo's image has returned to the EA Sports website.Premier League club facing point deduction punishment this summer
