World famous footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo is accused of evading 5.7 million euros in taxes in Spain.

After settling a tax evasion case with Spanish tax authorities, the 33-year-old footballer will be fined 3.2 million euros ($3.7 million) and sentenced to 24 months in prison.

The star is unlikely to go to prison as Spanish law states a sentence of less than two years for a first offence can be served on probation.
