The Los Blancos stopper insisted that his former teammate and friend Juan Rodriguez send him a video of sexual intercourse in which he participated with the two aforementioned girls (aged 18 and 16), which he did.
An aggravating circumstance for the 22-year-old Spaniard is that at the time of requesting the recording, he was aware that one of the persons was a minor, and that the content was made without the knowledge and consent of the participants, local media reported.
Upon receiving the material, Asensio forwarded the video to a third party in the form of a one-time Whatsapp message on June 21, 2023.
Information about the involvement of one of the most promising defenders in Spanish football only surfaced recently, after Rodriguez admitted to the police that his friend was involved.
The judicial authority has given its consent to the process initiated the year before last being summarily converted into a criminal investigation, which suggests that Asensio will have a hard time going unpunished.
He argued in his defense that he was present in the WhatsApp group chat when the content was shared. This would mean that the recordings were not sent directly to him, but that he happened to be in the conversation. He also claims that he sent the material to the boyfriend of one of the girls, which should not be considered an extenuating circumstance.
