Following Los Blancos' 3-2 defeat at home to Villarreal on Saturday, Uruguay international Federico Valverde was said to be involved in a heated altercation with Alex Baena, one of Spain's rising talents.
The 21-year-old winger has denied the accusation that he insulted Valverde's unborn child, claims the Real midfielder's camp is believed to have made in response to their scuffle at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Baena has since issued a statement, saying he and his family have suffered a great deal since taking the matter to the relevant authorities.
"Last Saturday I was assaulted by a professional colleague," he wrote, according to Sport.
"After the event, some statements allegedly made by his entourage came to light, in which it was said that I had wished for the harm of a family member. As could not be otherwise, no evidence has been published to prove the facts that I am accused of.
"A misfortune was used to justify the aggression and there are lies that hurt more than the blows. The damage that is being done to my family is irreparable and unjustifiable: threats, insults and even private messages wishing death.
"Yesterday I reported the case to the police. Let justice do its job. My only objective now is to focus on my profession and help my club to achieve its objectives."
Villarreal are currently fifth in LaLiga, while Real are second to rivals Barcelona in the table after 28 matches.
