Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti denies Tax Evasion allegations
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has dismissed allegations of tax evasion as he appeared in a Spanish court on Wednesday.
The Italian coach is accused of failing to pay one million euros in taxes on his salary during his first stint with Real Madrid between 2013 and 2015. Prosecutors are seeking a four-year, nine-month prison sentence and a €3.2 million fine, alleging that Ancelotti failed to declare income from his image rights.
Testifying before the Provincial Court of Madrid, Ancelotti maintained that his financial affairs were handled by his advisors and insisted he had complied with tax regulations.
Ancelotti joins a list of high-profile football figures, including Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and José Mourinho, who have faced similar tax-related legal battles in Spain.
