DAVID DE GEA faced more damaging claims last night over alleged text messages with a protected witness who has named him as part of an ongoing prostitution and child pornography probe.
It is alleged the Manchester United keeper arranged for his former Spanish under-21 teammate Iker Muniain and an unnamed player to meet the prostitute for sexual relations against her will.
De Gea, 25, adamantly denied claims on Friday, insisting: “It is all a lie.”
There is no suggestion the Spain stopper took part in the alleged sex party, said to have happened in 2012.
But several Spanish media published the messages the prostitute is claiming she exchanged with the shot-stopper.
The messages show the unnamed woman, identified as TP3 in police files, refers to an alleged orgy she says de Gea wanted her to take part in with four other Man U teammates.
Respected online newspaper El Confidencial, one of the Spanish media outlets which published the text message exchange, said copies of the screenshots were contained in internal police files.
It reproduced pictures of some of the text messages on its website along with a transcript referring to the witness by her codename and de Gea as DG which went as follows:
TP3: “And Manchester?”
TP3 “He has mentioned it to me.”
TP3 “It’s true.”
TP3 ?
DG “Yes, it’s true ha-ha”
TP3 “You’re naughty.”
DG “No, I’m doing it for my teammates woman, ha-ha.”
TP3 “What’s your team?”
TP3 “Atleti?”
DG “Manchester.”
DG “No.
TP3 “I’m lost.”
TP3 “When it comes to those sorts of things.”

DG “I can see.”
TP3 “Ha-ha.”
TP3 “Do any of your teammates like me
TP3 ??
TP3 “Apart from you of course.”
TP3 “Ha-ha.”
DG “Will you be able to cope with all of them?”
TP3 “How many are there.”
TP3 ??
DG “About five with me.”
TP3 “Of course.”
DG “I’m not so sure, ha-ha.”
Respected radio station Cadena Ser also reproduced text messages the witness had showed police which she said came from Muniain, the Atletic de Bilbao player she accuses of physically and sexually abusing her and another woman during a party at a Madrid hotel.
They also referred to the Manchester meeting, which it is understood never took place.
The woman alleges the Madrid hotel party took place in 2012 and was organised between de Gea and a jailed porn film director called Torbe.
The alleged text message exchange with Muniain printed on Cadena Ser’s website shows TP3 telling the man she identifies as Muniain that de Gea had asked Torbe about a service similar to the Madrid hotel service in Manchester.
TP3 says in one of the exchanges: “With five boys.”
Pot-bellied Spaniard Torbe, full name Ignacio Allende Fernandez, was arrested and remanded in prison in April after being accused of crimes including distribution of child pornography, corrupting minors, people trafficking, and money laundering.
A Madrid court is probing him as part of an ongoing investigation into nearly half a dozen suspects including three of his employees and a Ukrainian said to have provided him with many of his girls.
Investigators suspect an alleged criminal organisation tricked women into making X-rated videos and also got them involved in prostitution.
De Gea was forced to speak out at a hastily-arranged press conference at Spain’s Euro 2016 camp in France earlier yesterday to deny any wrongdoing and claim he was the victim of a pack of lies.
He is named in a statement the protected witness made alleging he was the person who with Torbe set up the hotel meeting between her, another woman and the two Spanish football players, one of whom she has identified as Muniain.
The alleged text message exchanges are also said to be around three years old.
Police have made no official comment but before the text message exchanges were printed in the Spanish press, sources close to the case said police documents published on Spanish online news site Eldiario.es based on statements the protected witness had made last May and earlier this month were “genuine documents.”
Speaking for the first time about the reports yesterday, de Gea said: “I was resting in my hotel room and on my Playstation when I found this was breaking in the papers.
“I informed my family to make sure they were okay and they know me well and know this is all false.”
He added: “This is in the hands of my lawyers. I feel very very calm about all of this. I know what I’ve done in my life and I know it’s all false. I haven’t really got a lot more to add.
“I don’t know why this has come out in the press now and where it’s come from.
“I think it’s a way of trying to blacken someone’s name. I’m very calm and I know it’s false. That’s all.”
He also denied rumours he would be leaving the tournament without playing a game.
Muniain also took to Twitter to angrily deny the claims being made against him.
He said: “The facts related are absolutely false. In the next few days I will appoint a lawyer to defend my honour.
“I hope that all the fans who have supported me on the pitch, have faith in me at this moment in time.”
