Young central defender of Real Madrid, Raúl Asensio, has broken into the first team this season but found himself at the center of a scandal.

Earlier it was reported that he is accused of distributing child pornography, for which he faces up to five years in prison. Now the player himself has spoken on the matter.

Details: According to Relevo, Asensio claims he is not guilty. He remains calm about the situation and, despite the pressure, finds motivation in it.

Quote: "I think everyone is aware of what they are doing. That's why I take this calmly. In the end, it's just a matter of time. Of course, I feel the change in the level of pressure on the field – it's logical, right? With the rise in category...

But I am a person who likes it, who is motivated by feeling this pressure. I think I've been used to it since childhood in Madrid. It just spurs me on," said Asensio.

Reminder: The incident occurred back when he was playing for Real's youth team. During a vacation in the Canary Islands, his friends filmed a sexual act with two local girls without their consent. Today the court rejected the appeal of the 21-year-old footballer, keeping him among the accused.
