Angel Di Maria has been sentenced to one year in
prison after admitting to tax fraud.
The PSG attacker was accused of two separate
offences – each of which will carry a six-month
sentence, according to el confidencial .
Di Maria admitted to defrauding the Spanish
government of £1.14 million during his four-year spell
with Real Madrid between 2010 and 2014.
The former Manchester United player will pay a fine of
£1.76million and avoid trial at the Spanish
supreme court.
Despite the prison sentence, Di Maria is unlikely to
spend any time behind bars as jail terms under two
years are suspended in Spain provided the convicted
has no prior criminal record.
The Spanish supreme court found Lionel Messi guilty
of a similar crime last year.
