Early last year, the football player was accused of raping a 23-year-old girl. The victim said the incident took place in a nightclub in Barcelona. However, the athlete himself denied all accusations and insisted that the intimacy was consensual. The hearing in this case took place from February 5 to 7. While the investigation was ongoing, Joanna’s husband left the football player.
