Romance rumours involving Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema and global popstar Rihanna continue to circulate after the pair were spotted partying in Los Angeles.

The duo have been seen together twice within a week; the previous spotting was in New York City, where the pair partied until 5am.

This time, both Benzema and Rihanna were photographed at Henry's nightclub in West Hollywood, but according to the Daily Mail, despite sitting together in the venue, the pair left in separate cars.

The French footballer is having some time off before rejoining his Madrid teammates for pre-season training next month.
