Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly accepted a two-year suspended prison sentence and will have pay to €18.8 million to the Spanish treasury to settle his tax fraud case.
According to El Mundo (h/t RT), Ronaldo accepted four fiscal offences before the Tax Agency, each of which carries a punishment of six months in prison.
Ronaldo was accused last year of evading €14.7 million in tax, but in Spain, prison sentences of two years or less do not have to be served by those without a prior criminal record.
