Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is set to pay a staggering €19m tax avoidance fine to the Spanish Tax Authority, after reaching an agreement following a much publicised investigation into his financial affairs.
According to AS, the Portuguese international will also be sentenced to a two year suspended prison sentence, which he will not have to serve if he pleads guilty to four tax crimes.
The €19m settlement was originally reached with Spain's Inland Revenue, but had to be reviewed by the new directors following the recent change of government in Spain.
