Raúl Asencio, convicted of drunken driving in Gran Canaria with a rate almost four times higher than the permitted

Raúl Asencio, a defender for Real Madrid, was sentenced for driving under the influence in Gran Canaria, with a blood alcohol level nearly four times the legal limit. The incident occurred during a police check in San Bartolomé de Tirajana on August 16, 2026. Asencio admitted guilt three days later during a quick trial, resulting in a fine of €14,400 and an eight-month suspension of his driver’s license. He was not involved in any accidents or reckless driving. The case comes just hours before Asencio appears in court related to a separate incident involving a leaked video from 2023.
