Apparently the 8 Mexican National team players were kicked off the squad for having been caught with prostitutes this past weekend. Details from the incident are hazy, at best and plenty of speculation abounds on what really happened. The footballers were caught when they reported that valuables such as iPads and laptops had been stolen from their rooms. The hotel manager caught team managers ushering the players’ dates into the rooms on video while investigating the incident.
You can draw your own conclusion from the below report.
According to the AP:
Eight players from Mexico’s team for the Copa America have been suspended for six months for violating team training rules.
The Mexican federation said Tuesday it would not disclose details. News reports in Mexico said the incidents took place in Ecuador during training and involved players having female guests in their rooms.
The players named are: Israel Jimenez, Nestor Vidrio, Jonathan Dos Santos, Marco Fabian, Jorge Hernandez, Javier Cortes, David Cabrera, and Nestor Calderon.
