Spain goalkeeper David De Gea today said press reports linking him to a prostitution case currently under investigation in Spain were false and he would not leave the Spanish squad.
Earlier today, some UK-based media outlets had claimed that De Gea had been sent home and would not be part of Spain's Euro 2016 squad.
"It is all a lie. It's all false what has come out in the press. It is in the hands of my lawyers," de Gea told journalists in Saint Martin de Re where the Spanish team is preparing the Euro 2016 soccer championship.
"I'm calm. If anything I am going to have more determination. I'm looking forward for Euro 2016 to start," De Gea also said.
Reports in the Spanish press today claimed that a witness testifying in the case against a pornography mogul had said that De Gea had arranged a meeting between her, another woman and two Spanish U-21 players during which she was coerced into sex back in 2012.
