Spain and Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has reportedly been implicated in the investigation of a Spanish porn producer by the name of Torbe.
A protected witness has claimed that she was taken to a hotel room where she was abused by two footballers. One of the footballers is alleged to be Athletic Bilbao’s Iker Muniain, the second footballer has not been named.
Torbe was arrested in April for alleged sexual abuse of minors and the production and distribution of child pornography, reports El Confidencial.
While de Gea is not accused of having directly participated in the abuse, he is accused of having had a hand in arranging the encounter.
The report, which has been published in Spanish newspaper El Diario, says that Torbe raped a minor and recorded it for the purpose of sending it to Spanish footballers – including De Gea.

The paper tweeted the official police document on which their claims are based, and have reported that a sex worker has claimed De Gea was involved in soliciting her services, she also claims she was forced to have sexual intercourse (but not with De Gea).
Spanish news outlets AS and El Confidencial also report the same details as El Diario.
None of the footballers included in the documents have been charged with any crime by Spanish police.
There has been no comment from David de Gea at this time. There are rumours that he is being sent home from EURO 2016, but this has not been confirmed by the Spanish FA. He is (at the time of writing) still believed to be with the national squad.
Spanish football writer Guillem Balague has reported that De Gea is in the hotel with the national team.
De Gea has not been sent home. He is in the hotel with the national team. There is a court case on the way. Innocent till proven guilty
