Football Inconsistencies in the complaint

Theo Hernandez wants to play for Spain

After being questioned over an alleged sexual assault in Marbella, Atletico Madrid defender Theo Hernandez has been released without charge.

The incident is reported to have taken place at around 04:00 at the Olivia Valere club in the city, where the 19-year-old left-back - who is set for a summer move to Real Madrid from Atletico Madrid - is currently holidaying, rather than playing with the French Under-21s.

Contradictions within the complainant's report are believed to be the reason behind his release.

The story was first reported by El Espanol and later confirmed by MARCA on Monday morning.

She had claimed that they were friends who had been enjoying some drinks together, before the footballer suggested they go outside to the car park, where he claimed he had to return some keys.

Once there, they got inside a Porsche Cayenne and began to engage in sexual activity, but the young woman then asked him to stop, and she claims he did not.

She claims there was a struggle, which lasted several minutes, and that he continued to sexually assault her, before throwing her from the vehicle and onto the concrete, where she landed on her knees.

Returning to the club, she told police she was insulted by Alexis, a friend of Theo and a former Alaves teammate.

Other friends then took her home, after which she decided to visit the Hospital Costa del Sol and then the police station.
