Cristiano Ronaldo and Xabi Alonso will appear in a Madrid court Tuesday, January 22, to answer "separate tax-evasion charges," according to BBC Sport.
The former Real Madrid team-mates are dealing with accusations first levied against them within the space of a year. Ronaldo was accused in 2017 and subsequently opted to pay a fine worth £16.4 million (€18.8 million).
Meanwhile, Alonso will attend the Madrid Provincial Court to respond to an accusation brought against him back in March 2018. The ex-Real Sociedad, Liverpool and Bayern Munich midfielder is said to have failed to declare image rights, leaving him owing as much as £1.
