Brazil Coach Carlo Ancelotti Gets One-Year Suspended Sentence in Spanish Tax Case

A Spanish court has sentenced Brazil national team coach and former Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti to a one-year prison term for tax fraud relating to his image rights earnings in 2014. The ruling, handed down on Wednesday by a court in Madrid, found the Italian coach guilty of failing to declare revenues from his image rights while managing Real Madrid during his first spell at the club. However, under Spanish law, first-time non-violent offenders receiving sentences under two years are rarely required to serve jail time. This means Ancelotti is unlikely to spend any time in prison. The court also acquitted Ancelotti of a second alleged tax offense from 2015, ruling there was insufficient evidence to prove wrongdoing during that year. Ancelotti, who is set to take charge of Brazil at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, has not yet publicly commented on the verdict.
