Real Madrid star Raul Asencio may face criminal proceedings in Spain over allegations he shared a sex tape involving a minor.
The Gran Canaria High Court of Justice announced on Wednesday an investigation regarding the alleged incident had finished and made an order to formalise criminal proceedings.
The court also confirmed four footballers, including Asencio, could face criminal proceedings over allegations they recorded and distributed videos of sexual content which involved a minor and another woman.
Andres Garcia, Ferran Ruiz and Juan Rodriguez are the three other players alleged to be involved.
The court’s decision has now meant the prosecutor’s office can file charges and request a trial or ask for the case to be closed.
In a statement released by the court, the judge claimed there was enough evidence to back up allegations of crimes which consist of distribution of videos to third parties without the victims’ knowledge or consent, solicitation of a minor for pornographic purposes, violation of privacy and possession of child pornography.
The announcement was made on Wednesday and prior to kick-off in Real Madrid’s 2-1 win over Mallorca, which Asencio started.
The alleged incident occurred at a beach club in Gran Canaria in June 2023.
Ruiz, Rodriguez and Garcia were arrested in September 2023 and when Asencio provided a testimony as a witness, he then became involved in the investigation.
Real Madrid confirmed the arrests had taken place in a club statement at the time.
“Real Madrid wishes to announce that it has learned that a Castilla player and three Real Madrid C players have made statements to the Civil Guard in relation to a complaint about the alleged broadcasting of a private video via WhatsApp,” the statement read.
“When the club has detailed knowledge of the facts, we will take the appropriate measures.”
Asencio has had a breakout campaign for Real Madrid this seasonGettyAsencio had an appeal for an investigation into his alleged role rejected by the court in February.
During the Madrid defender’s appeal, court documents revealed one of the women involved was under the age of 16 when the incident in Gran Canaria occurred.
Ruiz, Rodrigues and Garcia are no longer at Madrid having departed the club last summer.
Asencio made his senior debut for Los Blancos in November 9 against Osasuna.
The 22-year-old has since gone on to make 41 appearances across all competitions for the Spanish giants.
