Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has been the subject of suspected tax fraud of £2.9 million (€3.3m) from Spanish prosecutors.
The Spanish tax authorities have filed a claim against the Portuguese coach on two counts of tax fraud in 2011 and 2012, when Mourinho was in-charge of Real Madrid.
A Madrid prosecutor said in a statement on Tuesday that Mourinho did not declare his income from use of his image rights in order to gain an ‘illicit benefit’, adding it had presented the claim to a local court.
Mourinho, who managed Real Madrid between 2010 and 2013, winning one La Liga title, one Copa del Rey and one Spanish Supercopa, is yet to comment on the accusation.
