BarcelonaAn unexpected turn of events in the alleged assault suffered by Villarreal player Álex Baena by Fede Valverde from Madrid. The judge in charge of the case has decided to file the complaint considering that the groguet footballer lied in his statement, since his version of the events does not quite agree with what was recorded by the security cameras of the Santiago Bernabéu car park .

As it progressed The Spanish, the court of inquiry number 48 of Madrid, which is the one that brings the complaint through the criminal route, decided to stop the case. Baena had denounced a punch in the eye by Valverde after the League match between the Groguets and the Madridistas at the Bernabéu. He had also said that the Madrid player had acknowledged the facts to the police who were present in the area. But the versions are contradictory because Valverde maintained that “nothing happened”.

The facts have been analyzed through the images that Real Madrid provided to the police, from the surveillance cameras. It is not detailed whether or not they finally reached the hands. Even so, the magistrate emphasizes in her writing that Baena assured that Álvaro Odriozola (Real Madrid) was present at the time of the incident. The images disprove it, and this has led him to the conclusion that the Villarreal footballer is “lying”. When Odriozola was asked about the events, he denied any punches and only said that he was aware of a “verbal sparring”.

It all happened on the night of April 8, after Villarreal beat Madrid 2-3 in the League match. The Uruguayan defender was waiting for Baena in the parking area. “Tell me now what you told me about my son”, the midfielder of the Madrid team would have told him, before starting the discussion. The brawl would be explained following the Copa del Rey match that pitted the two teams against each other at the Estadio de la Ceràmica on January 19, with a result favorable to the whites (2-3). In that duel, Baena, after a foul, would have said to him: “Cry now, because your child will not be born.” Then information circulated about the problems that Valverde’s wife was having during her second pregnancy.

Valverde, pending the sports sanction

Despite the fact that the criminal case has been closed, Valverde is still waiting for the sports justice, since the investigating judge proposed to the Competition Committee a sanction of five games for the Madrid defender. From here, Madrid will try to use the same arguments that have served to exonerate their player in ordinary justice so that the proposed penalty on the playing fields also remains on wet paper.
