MISSING rugby and X Factor star Levi Davis may have drowned after being hunted by criminals over a £100,000 debt, it was reported. The 24-year-old rugby player was last seen leaving an Irish pub in Barcelona on October 29 and police said his passport was found in the city’s port area. Levi has been missing since OctoberGetty His family hired a private investigator in a bid to find Levi amid reports his bank card and phone had not been used since he vanished. But now it’s been reported Levi may have run up huge debts with Somali criminals as his party lifestyle spiralled out of control. An unnamed member of the team of private detectives told La Vanguardia newspaper: “Davis came to Barcelona fleeing from these criminals. “He had adopted a frenzied lifestyle and was in a very delicate situation. The truth is he was sure they were chasing him.  “In fact he was convinced they had tried to poison him on one occasion.” The amount he owed was put at around 115,000 euros – which is a little short of £102,000. The Somali mafia debt claims surfaced in Spain as it emerged his family were pressing Spanish police to investigate a possible drowning in Barcelona’s port. Levi’s passport was found nearby and fears grew he could have been lured into a trap after arranging to meet someone he had met on social media.
