Jose Mourinho escapes jail term for tax evasion
Jose Mourinho has accepted a 1-year prison sentence in Spain for tax fraud during his time at Real Madrid but will not go to prison.
The 56-year-old Portuguese was accused of defrauding the Spanish tax authorities of 3.3 million euros between 2011 and 2012. Mourinho has been fined nearly 2 million euros for tax evasion and his 1-year jail term will be exchanged for a fine of around 180.000 euros.
The former Manchester United manager is the latest high-profile football personality to strike a deal with the Spanish authorities over such issues.
