The treasury noticed various irrgularities between 2011 and 2014

He could be fined that figure and also be issued a prison sentence

Cristiano Ronaldo allegedly defrauded the Hacienda by 15 million euros between 2011 and 2014 according to El Mundo, a figure much higher than the 8 million euro number which has recently become known to the public.

The tax office believes that on top of the 5.6m euros which Ronaldo paid he should have paid 15m more.

The Ronaldo scandal came to light when Football Leaks revealed it. The courts will analyse the case and it could result in a big fine for the striker as well as a possible prison sentence.
