A PUBLIC prosecutor wants Real Madrid defender Raul Asencio jailed for two-and-a-half years, according to reports.
Asencio, 22, is alleged to have shared a sex tape involving a minor.

In February it was revealed that Asencio would stand trial in the Canary Islands after being accused of disseminating images and a video of a minor and another girl.
According to The Athletic, Spain's Public Prosecutor's Office has alleged that two former Real Madrid academy players, not Asencio, had consensual sex with the two girls, including the minor.
They are accused of photographing the incident without the minor, and another involved girl's, consent.
Asencio is then alleged to have asked to be sent videos of the incident, before then showing them to someone else.
This would mean that he committed two breaches of Article 77 of the Spanish Criminal Code, relating to privacy, if guilty.
The Spain international is one of four Real Madrid academy products involved in the ongoing case, but the only one still at the club.
Ferran Ruiz has since moved to Girona, while Juan Rodriguez, and Andres Garcia have signed for teams in the Spanish lower leagues.
The Spanish Public Prosecutor's Office has called for all four players to be jailed.
Both girls are claimed to be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
They are said to want Asencio to pay them each €5,000 (£4,350) for his alleged role in their ordeals.
Earlier this year, Asencio released a statement strongly denying any wrongdoing.
It began: "I have not participated in any behaviour that violates the sexual freedom of any woman, much less minors."
Asencio also said the "presumption of innocence must continue to prevail."
He added: "Should charges ultimately be filed and a trial commence, I will continue to defend myself before the Courts and Tribunals, in which I have full confidence, reaffirming my innocence of any criminal conduct.
"All of this is without prejudice to the utmost respect for the conduct of the judicial proceedings as a whole, including those of the other persons under investigation.
"I want to reiterate, once again, my absolute respect for the rights to sexual freedom and privacy of all women."
Allegations made against Asencio did not stop him from being selected by Real Madrid last season.
Having made his senior debut last November, Asencio was a regular throughout the rest of the campaign under Carlo Ancelotti.
He also featured in four of Real Madrid's six Club World Cup games under Ancelotti's successor Xabi Alonso.
In addition to making 46 senior appearances for Real to date, Asencio received his first Spain call up in March, although he did not get on from the bench to earn his maiden cap.
