As protests and demonstrations for affordable housing continue to escalate, with encampments appearing in cities like Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia, the issue has become a major point of contention in Congress and political media coverage.

In the world of football, it is common for many players to invest in property. In fact, Atlético Madrid manager Diego Simeone owns 180 properties in Madrid, and some retired players, such as former Real Madrid player Guti, have also admitted to investing their money in real estate.

An angry public has also begun targeting those who profit from housing, and Celta Vigo player and World Cup winner Borja Iglesias has been named in this context.

The Galician player owns a company called Borja Patrimonial S.L., which manages the money he earned during his career. Many have suggested that he may be speculating through this company, which is surprising given the striker's previously outspoken and socially engaged stance.

According to Spanish commercial registry data, the company's business scope includes buying, selling, and renting real estate, as well as property development. However, the striker himself has come forward to defend himself and explain the actual situation.

"I have a house in Madrid, or rather, 50% of it. The other 50% belongs to María (my partner), who lives and works there," Iglesias wrote on social media. He added: "She owns 50% because, unfortunately, it is very difficult to buy a house in Madrid. Even if your income is above average, it is almost impossible. This is what people complain about, what I complain about, and what we should all complain about."

In fact, the Celta Vigo striker is very active on social media, frequently posting and responding to various content. Beyond responding to "haters," he also acknowledged that he is in a more advantaged position compared to most Spanish people.

"I feel very fortunate to have this life, career, and financial situation. But this issue affects everyone, and most of us are closer to Maricarmen's situation than others," he wrote, referencing the 87-year-old woman who was evicted from her home and died in September. He was also responding to those who consistently fail to see their true position in the current social structure while supporting certain political parties.
