Football fans took to Twitter to express their opinion after Spain’s number one goalkeeper David De Gea was accused of rape in Spain, according to a report published on El Confidential. The case is all about a producer of pornographic content who was accused of abusing and trafficking girls.
One of the witnesses, whose identity was concealed for her own safety, was quoted by Eldiario.es claiming that she was taken to a hotel and abused by prominent footballers back in 2012. Atletico Bilbao forward Iker Muniain was one of the players mentioned in the sex scandal, including Manchester United and Spain star goalkeeper David De Gea.
The report further claims that there is evidence of messages exchanged between the three parties. De Gea allegedly asked the unnamed girl whether she ‘would be with five Man United players.’
Real Madrid’s Isco is yet another player who has been mentioned in the list of footballers accused of sexually abusing the unnamed girl. However, De Gea, who is in Spain, denied the allegations and described them as 'serious and false' while Muniain's agent denied having any knowledge about the scandal.
Part of De Gea's statement read:
"I am surprised by the news. It is serious and false.
"These accusations give me more strength to train harder and help the team. They can say all they want, it is all false. I will keep training in the face of this.
"I am more surprised than anyone about this.''
He also rebished claims that he had been suspended from Spain's camp in France ahead of the Euro 2016.
"Of course I am staying with the team. I have great support from my teammates and am even more looking forward to this Euros now. It is something false which has come out in the press, now in the hands of my lawyers. This gives me more strength to train more, to help the team however I can."
In the meantime, football fans took to Twitter to air their opinions regarding the sex scandal, particularly the involvement of shot stopper David De Gea.

De Gea took LVGs 'horny' advise too seriously.

This De Gea situation is all down to LVG telling his players to be horny :D

When LVG told his players to be "horny", I think De Gea took it a bit to seriously...
