FIFA demand gender test for Liverpool�s Torres

 

Premiership footballer Fernando Torres has been asked to take a gender test to eliminate concerns he is a woman, according to football�s governing body FIFA.

 

FIFA says it demanded the test three weeks ago amid fears he should not be able to play in the all male� Premier League.

 

Michelle Platini, himself a suspected women, said the ââ?¬Å?extremely complex, difficultââ?¬Â test results were not due for several weeks.

 

ââ?¬Å?It will take us a considerable amount of time to check if Mr, or Mrs, Torres does, or does not, have the male sexual reproductive organs.ââ?¬Â

 

ââ?¬Å?This sort of test cannot be conducted quickly without medical specialists, there are several ways to cheat the traditional ââ?¬Ë?cup and coughââ?¬â?¢ approach.ââ?¬Â

 

Liverpool Football Club, said that they are ââ?¬Å?completely sureââ?¬Â that Torres, 25, is a female but felt that she should be entitled to play in the all male league due to her popularity with team-mates Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard.

 

A source at Liverpool said, ââ?¬Å?Jamie and Stevie have put in hours of hard work on the training ground with Torres and were both on the verge of securing a much sought after dateââ?¬Â.

 

ââ?¬Å?We would not have signed Torres if she hadnââ?¬â?¢t been so pretty. Sheââ?¬â?¢s so graceful, with her flowing locks and smooth skin.ââ?¬Â

 

ââ?¬Å?Some our fan base is made up of heterosexual males, and posters of Torres adorn the walls of many those fansââ?¬Â.

 

FIFA stated: ââ?¬Å?If it is proved that Torres is female, she will be withdrawn from all FIFA competitions and matches she was involved with will be forfeited to the opposition.ââ?¬Â

 

The Spanish Foreign Minister, Miguel Angel Moratinos, said ââ?¬Å?we have no issues with Torresââ?¬â?¢ gender. We may be filthy racists but you canââ?¬â?¢t accuse us of sexismââ?¬Â.

 

He added, ââ?¬Å?We are however concerned that our Euro 2008 triumph might be written out of the history books because of a technicalityââ?¬Â.

 

It's the rosey cheeks that makes you wonder.
