He is accused alongside three other former players of the Spanish top club.
The investigations against Asencio and the other footballers began in May and have been handled by the Spanish justice system. The court case involves the spreading of sex videos featuring minors, a fact confirmed by court records viewed by news agency AFP.

The videos in question were viewed by AFP, and they feature a minor. No new information about the exact age of the minors in the video has been provided.
The presiding judge has ordered the defendants to post bail, with amounts ranging between 15,000 and 20,000 euros. The bail must be posted within 24 hours.
Another young girl, estimated to be between 16 and 18 years old, is also involved in the videos. The exact age of the other young girl involved is estimated to be between 16 and 18 years old.
The investigations against Asencio and the other footballers include locations in Madrid and Las Palmas, Gran Canaria. The court proceedings have not yet announced a new location.
