A spokesperson for Sophie said: 'We can confirm that there is no romantic link between Sophie Turner and Danny Cipriani, Sophie was out with a large group of friends and Danny was merely being a gentleman and leading her through a very crowded bar.
Danny's representatives added: 'Danny and Sophie are friends they were out in a group to watch the England football match.'
Danny most recently dated Sky Sports' Kirsty Gallacher, but their relationship came to an end earlier this year after he allegedly sent lewd messages to Life on Marbs star Danni Levy.

Prior to Kirsty, Danny has been linked to a host of famous women, including Kelly Brook, Katie Price, Cheeky Girl Monica Irimia and Australian models Lara Bingle and Jesinta Campbell.
The rugby star has described Kelly as his only serious girlfriend, having originally dated from 2008-2010 and again for eight months in 2013 before splitting amidst claims he had cheated on her.
Meanwhile, Sophie recently admitted that finding fame on a television phenomenon as big as Game of Thrones hasn't always been plain-sailing, admitting that it wasn't easy to grow up in the limelight.
The actress told the July issue of British InStyle that she went through 'hard years' between the ages of 16 and 19 as she struggled with her body transforming in the full glare of the public eye.

'At first,' she said. 'It was the character; people hating on her because she was a 13-year-old girl, and she should have a smart head on her shoulders and make good decisions.
'When people started to know my name, as well as the character's name, that was kind of difficult. From 16 to when I turned 19, they were quite hard years.'
Sophie continued: 'You're in the prime of puberty; your body is changing, your face is changing, and people still saw me as that 13-year-old girl, with no body, and thought that's how I should look forever.
Sophie - who was raised in the English town of Northampton - has also hit the big screen, taking on the role of Jean Grey/Phoenix in the recently released X-Men: Apocalypse.
