We do not come across explanations of homosexuality very often in the football world. In fact, Australian Josh Carvalho, who was the first name to declare that he is gay among active players, was also on the agenda, claiming that he might not be able to attend the World Cup in Qatar because of this orientation. The Qatari administration stated that the player could come to the tournament and that there was no obstacle in front of him.
Today, the social media has been completely shaken by the statements of two names who have recently said goodbye to the green fields. Real Madrid’s Iker Casillas and Barcelona’s Charles Puyol have announced that they are gay.
Social media statement made a mess
First up, 41-year-old Casillas tweeted, “I hope you can respect me: I’m gay.” made the statement. Puyol said, “It’s time to tell our story, Iker.” gave an answer. While these posts were on the agenda around the world, both names later deleted their posts. Also, Real Madird also unfollowed Casillas.
In the Spanish press, AS newspaper claimed that the legendary goalkeeper, who was fed up with the rumors about love, chose such a method as an irony to make fun of these posts.
Casillas announced that his Twitter account was hacked.
After these posts, Iker Casillas first deleted the posts, then made a statement and announced that his Twitter was hacked. Puyol has also deleted the posts, but hasn’t posted anything yet.
