Prosecutors are seeking a nine-year jail term for the former Barcelona full-back, who has been in jail in Spain since his arrest in January, and demanded he pay his alleged victim 150,000 euros ($163,500) in compensation. &nbsp;The 40-year-old has maintained he had consensual sex with his accuser. &ldquo;I have a really clear conscience regarding what happened that night in the bathroom of the VIP area of the Sutton nightclub,&rdquo; he told Barcelona-based newspaper La Vanguardia in an interview published in June, his first since his arrest.&nbsp;
