Spain and Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas, has walked back his tweet about being gay as he claims his account was hacked.
Dockaysworld had reported earlier that Casillas had come out as gay and even appeared set to disclose a relationship with former Barcelona rival Carles Puyol.
The goalkeeper has now taken to his Twitter to announce that his account was hacked as he apologized to the LGBTQ community.
He tweeted:
Hacked account. Luckily everything in order. Apologies to all my followers. And of course, more apologies to the LGBT community.
Puyol’s tweet has been chalked off to a wrong translation by twitter as he was simply asking Casillas to tell his story.
Meanwhile reports from Spain indicates that the goalkeeper was being sarcastic and was not hacked as he said.
Spanish reporters alleged that Casillas was only responding to constant rumors of different women he’s dating including recently an allegation he was with Shakira.
