Paris Saint-Germain's David Luiz has denied reports that he is a virgin and has accused the press of showing a lack of respect.

The 28-year-old was recently quoted as saying that will abstain from sex until he marries his girlfriend Sara Madeira.

Luiz made the claims after he was baptised in the swimming pool of PSG teammate Maxwell, but the former Chelsea player has now stated that he is not a virgin.

"People are saying things everywhere about whether I'm a virgin or not - I'm not a virgin," Luiz told the BBC's Football Focus. "I've had more than one girlfriend in my life.

"Some people in the press don't respect people in life. I can put my head on my pillow and sleep great because I respect everyone."

Luiz joined PSG from Chelsea last year for a reported fee of around £50m.
