Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez has admitted to defrauding the Spanish tax authorities of almost £1m in relation to unpaid image rights during his time at Barcelona.
The 27-year-old, who appeared via videolink to a court in Barcelona, was expected to pay roughly £865,000 in income received between 2012 and 2013.
Sanchez evaded paying that sum of money through the use of a Maltese company called Numidia Trading, but has since paid it back in full and is unlikely to have to face a trial.
Lionel Messi, Javier Mascherano, Dani Alves, Adriano and Neymar are among the other Barcelona stars to have also answered questions relating to a failure to pay taxes over the past few years.
