Insights from Spanish Influencer Expose Footballers’ Instagram Tactics: ‘A Common Approach among Them’

Spanish model and influencer Raquel Reitx has recently shared some interesting insights into the world of footballers and their approaches to online flirting. In an interview with Bernardo Casp on ‘El Podcast de Druni,’ Reitx revealed that she receives numerous messages on social media, including from a significant number of footballers.

According to Reitx, there seems to be a common approach among footballers when it comes to initiating conversations with potential interests. She explained that it appears as though they have collectively agreed on a specific method, which she has personally encountered multiple times. The pattern she noticed involves sending a ‘fire’ emoji directly to the person, rather than reacting to their story. If the message is left unanswered, the footballers typically delete it, indicating a somewhat standardized tactic.

When questioned about the simplicity of this approach, Reitx suggested that due to their celebrity status, footballers often don’t need to put in much effort to elicit a response. She admitted that the method seems to be effective, considering that they continue to utilize it.

Reitx further shared her personal experience, noting that she prefers meeting people in person rather than through social media. She confessed to not being adept at responding promptly to messages on platforms like WhatsApp, making it even more challenging for her to engage with direct messages. While her personal preference may not align with the tactics employed by footballers, she shed light on the difficulties she faces in managing online communication.

It is not particularly surprising that footballers may not employ elaborate romantic gestures on Instagram. Given their public profiles and the potential for private messages to become public, it is understandable that they might opt for more discreet approaches. By keeping their messages relatively simple, they likely aim to minimize the risk of tabloid exposure.

Reitx’s revelations provide an intriguing glimpse into the social dynamics between footballers and potential romantic interests in the digital realm. While their methods may lack complexity, it appears that these tactics have been effective enough to warrant their continued use within the football community.
