Samuel Eto'o Pleads Guilty For €3.88m Tax Fraud To Avoid Prison by fergie001: 4:34pm On Jun 20, 2022 |
Forrmer FC Barcelona footballer, Samuel Eto'o Fils and his former representative José María Mesalles have accepted this Monday the sentences of 22 months and one year in prison, respectively, after acknowledging having defrauded 3,872,621 euros from the Public Treasury, between 2006 and 2009. Samuel Eto'o (L) and his former agent Jose Maria Mesalles (R) leaving the court in Barcelona In fact, the former Cameroonian footballer filed a lawsuit against his former representative for alleged crimes of fraud and misappropriation in the management of his assets, a matter that is still in the investigation phase. The Cameroon striker, now 41 years old, was playing for Barcelona when the offences occurred The sentences, whose execution will be suspended since neither of them has a previous criminal record, have been mitigated by the Public Prosecutor's Office by recognizing both the facts and having partially repaired the damage with the return of part of the defrauded fees. Eto'o was given a 22 months suspended prison sentence for tax fraud of around £3.32million Eto'o pretended that such rights had been assigned to two companies resident in Hungary and Spain, so that the income diverted to the Hungarian company, managed by Lastre , was not taxed to the Treasury, while that diverted to the Spanish company, managed by Mesalles , will not be taxed heavily, that is, corresponding to his Personal Income tax.

it seems this spanish tax laws or tax rate is too strict on outsiders, almost all big names av been involved in tax issues.. I remember the likes of messi, cr7 n even mourinho all had problems with tax evasion during their time in spain but hardly sees a Spanish player being dragged into this same tax avoidance problem.. i really missed the days of Eto scoring goals for barca..his numbers n achievements made him the greatest African striker of all time..no disrespect to drogba.. 69 Likes 6 Shares |
