The agent, Daniel Argibeaut, reported Eto’o to police on Wednesday, saying the player and four other men had attacked him outside the offices of Eto’o’s club Real Mallorca
But Eto’o stated on Thursday that he could « prove » he was not involved.
He said that at the time of the alleged assault he was in a clinic with Doctor Pericas, the Real Mallorca managing director.
« After that I went to a hairdresser salon and to visit a house in Son Vida, » Eto’o stated.
« I arrived home around eight in the evening and I have several witnesses that can confirm that.
« I am very calm and confident because I know the law will be on my side.
« This whole mess is going to be resolved very soon because the time has come to say ‘enough is enough’. »
