Abdo, 43, was accompanied by her husband and boxer, Malik Scott.
She was seen in striking white dress and heels while Scott, 44, was seen in a snazzy chequered black and white shirt paired with a bowler hat.
Their relationship was first revealed on air by CBS co-stars Micah Richards and Jamie Carragher in 2023 before they officially announced they had tied the knot in 2024.
Peter Schmeichel, who works as a pitchside reporter for the broadcaster, also joined her at the event in a black suit and trousers paired with white trainers.
They were in attendance to present the event, with Liverpool's Mohamed Salah being crowned the Player of the Season at the glitzy bash.
Meanwhile, Murati, dubbed the Albanian Laura Woods, stunned in a silky blue dress and platform heels.
The Champions League host, 30, has been a regular feature anchoring Europe's elite club competition for Vizion Plus and Tring TV since 2017.
She started working as a television presenter at the age of 18.
And at the event she was seen interviewing some figureheads of the sport.
The bash itself was directed by multiple Emmy award-winning Pete Radovich.

On the award, Sofascore's director of marketing, Branimir Karacic, said: "The Player of the Season Show is not just a celebration of the best footballers of the season.
"It's a statement of what we believe in – that performance on the pitch, supported by statistical data, deserves global recognition.
"Our Sofascore Rating is already a go-to standard for evaluating individual quality, and the fact that the show was produced by CBS, under the creative direction of Pete Radovich, gives the entire project even more weight."

Rangers officially miss out on major summer transfer target as deal ‘100% done'

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) RUSSELL MARTIN is moving quickly to kickstart his Rangers revolution ahead of the club's crucial Champions League qualifier against Panathinaikos next month. The former Southampton and Swansea boss has already brought his old Norwich pal Max Aarons to Rangers on loan for the season, while Lyall Cameron has linked up with his new manager and team-mates after penning his pre-contract from Dundee earlier this year. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Russell Martin has several targets already lined up Credit: PA 2 First summer signing Lyall Cameron arriving at Auchenhowie for his first training session Credit: Kenny Ramsay Martin still wants at least a couple of more bodies in the door before the season officially gets underway in just a matter of weeks. One area he's looking at is a new winger to replace Vaclav Cerny who has returned to his parent club Wolfsburg after spending last season in Glasgow. Martin did have a promising player lined up to take the Czechia international's place in the Gers first team. However, the manager will need to change his plans after seemingly losing out on the race to sign him. The player Martin wanted to sign was Kwame Poku, who was Peterborough United's Player of the Year last term following a standout campaign in EFL League One. He was also named in the division's Team of the Season after he scored 12 goals and provided eight assists in 27 league outings. The 23-year-old is out of contract this summer and Rangers were one of the many clubs that expressed interest in signing him. At one stage it looked like Poku had all-but sealed a stunning move north of the border to become one of Martin's firs recruits in Scotland. The ship has since sailed, though, as we told you last week how he was closing in on a switch to Queen's Park Rangers instead. Now transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has claimed the deal is now official and he's set to be unveiled as Julian Stephan's first signing after taking over as boss at Loftus Road this week. Sir Sean Connery's secret £1 MILLION investment in Rangers revealed Delivering the major update on social media, Romano wrote: "🔵⚪️✍🏻 Kwame Poku has signed in as new Queens Park Rangers player right now. All sealed. Deal 100% done. Excellent addition for QPR." It's a major blow for the Light Blues as Martin now has less than a month to land another target before the first Champions League showdown against the Greek giants. Rangers will host the first tie on July 22 and the return leg has been scheduled for the following week on July 30. They face Club Brugge in their first pre-season friendly on Sunday, July 6.

New Panathinaikos signing predicts victory vs Rangers

Pedro Chirivella, a former Liverpool midfielder, recently joined the Athens side and is eager for a European triumph. He is one of three summer signings, alongside Georgios Kyriakopoulos and Ahmed Touba. The Greek club will face Rangers in a second qualifying round tie next month, with the second leg in Greece. Chirivella, who made his Liverpool debut under the current Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers, is optimistic about Panathinaikos's prospects. He said: "The fact that Panathinaikos are in the Champions League played a very big part in my decision to come here. "We have two very big matches against Rangers coming up and we need to be 100 per cent ready to play them. "I am sure we have enough in the team to get through." Chirivella expressed confidence in his new team's abilities and his personal aspirations. He said: "It was an easy decision to sign here because everyone knows Panathinaikos are a very big team. "I wanted to come here, I have big ambitions to play in the Champions League."

Man Utd's Gyokeres boost after price change as swap deal impacts Garnacho

Manchester United are expected to have a busy summer transfer window as Ruben Amorim looks to build a squad that can right the wrongs of a woeful 2024/25 campaign The fate of Manchester United 's 2025/26 season hinges on the transfers they are able to pull off in the next two months. The 2024/25 campaign was the club's worst in recent memory, with Ruben Amorim's men repeatedly setting unwanted records. They finished 15th in the Premier League and missed out on Champions League football after a defeat in the Europa League final in May. However, a glimmer of hope emerged from their misery. It was clearly evident that a rebuild - built in Amorim's vision - was needed for their Portuguese boss to stand a chance at success next season. ‌ United kicked off the transfer window by announcing the signing of Wolves striker Matheus Cunha in a £62.5million deal earlier this month. The club's hierarchy continues to operate behind the scenes to orchestrate more signings and sales, with several high-profile names linked with an Old Trafford move this summer. ‌ Here, Mirror Football takes a look at three recent developments that could influence United's transfer dealings in the weeks ahead. Alejandro Garnacho transfer blow It's clear that Garnacho's days at Old Trafford are numbered. The 20-year-old voiced his dissatisfaction towards Amorim following United's Europa League loss to Spurs in Bilbao, having only been brought on from the 71st minute during the final. It was just the latest in a series of behavioural issues involving the Argentine winger, with Chelsea and Napoli's interest providing the perfect chance to sell him this summer. Garnacho's own preference is to remain in the Premier League, which initially made Chelsea the front-runners for his signature. However, it seems that the Blues have now swapped their Garnacho interest in favour of another winger, Borussia Dortmund's Jamie Gittens, who they are reportedly nearing a deal for a fee of £55.5m. Gittens' move to Stamford Bridge would likely put an end to their pursuit of Garnacho. That leaves United searching for another buyer for a player whose sale would generate substantial funds for new players. Chelsea could send £35m-rated Josh Acheampong to Dortmund in return in a separate deal, with The Independent claiming the Bundesliga side are interested in signing him. ‌ Viktor Gyokeres twist Amorim is clearly a fan of Gyokeres, having played a crucial role in the striker's evolution into a world-class player during their time together at Sporting CP. However, until now, the Swede has insisted that he only wants a move to Premier League rivals Arsenal this summer, as the Gunners weigh up whether to purchase him or RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko. Sesko is thought to be Mikel Arteta's preferred signing, but Gyokeres was still very much in contention due to his lower price tag. Yet, according to Bild, Leipzig have now reduced their initial asking price of £68-£85m to around £59.7m, which could see Arsenal proceed with their deal for Sesko. ‌ This could put Gyokeres in an unwanted position as his agent has already fallen out with Sporting's bosses by trying to orchestrate a move away. The development, however, provides the perfect opportunity for United to swoop in, should Gyokeres prefer a Premier League move to other options in Europe, with Juventus and other teams also lurking. Bryan Mbeumo makes a decision On Friday, The Athletic reported that United target Mbeumo has told Brentford he would prefer to sign for the Red Devils if he moves on this summer. Mbeumo's current contract runs until June 2026, though the Bees have the option to extend it by another 12 months. ‌ Despite this, United have made two offers, the second being £55m plus £7.5m in bonuses, both of which were turned down. Negotiations have been ongoing between the two clubs, but a potential deal was being threatened by Tottenham, who recently appointed Mbeumo's former Brentford boss, Thomas Frank, as head coach. However, it is understood that the Cameroon international only has eyes for United, with Spurs' interest now thought to be waning. With the player's position clear, it's up to United and Brentford to agree on a transfer that would significantly bolster Amorim's squad next season.
