Alexis Sanchez has accepted a sixteen month prison sentence for committing tax for doing his time for Barcelona, although he will not spend time in jail.
Spanish law states that the 29 year old will not have to spend any time in jail and he has agreed to pay the money he owes with interest.
The Manchester United forward was accused of defrauding the treasury of 1m between 2012 and 2013, relating to income from his image right.

Sanchez has, however, reached an agreement with the prosecutor to pay the money he owes with interest.

Despite the verdict, the Chilean will not spend time in prison as he is a first offender and the sentence is less than two years.
