A promising footballer linked with a transfer to West Ham earlier this year has been named as one of the three Real Madrid players arrested over a sex tape involving an underage teenage girl. Spanish police have not yet named any of the detainees and are unlikely to do so for legal reasons. But a newspaper in Gran Canaria where the incident took place that led to a video allegedly being passed around WhatsApp without the girl's consent is among those naming one of the footballers.
The player, currently playing for Real Madrid 's reserve team Castilla, has previously been called up by Spain youth squads.
A report in April said West Ham had spoken with his representatives about a summer deal. Three Real Madrid players have been arrested over a sex tape involving an underage girl. Reports say that the arrested footballers were among a group of men and women who partied at Amadores Beach Club when the sex tape is said to have been recorded.
At the time he was playing for Real Madrid's third team in the fifth tier of La Liga. His identification by some Spanish media coincided with other reports claiming the arrested footballers were among a group of four men and three women who partied together at a VIP chill-out area at Amadores Beach Club in the Gran Canaria holiday resort of Puerto Rico in the municipality of Mogan in June when the sex tape is said to have been recorded.
The footballer is said to have gone to the pool area with one of the women while the two others remained in the VIP chill-out area with the three other Real Madrid players 'to have consensual sex.
