Alexi Sánchez, a Chilean footballer, accepted a 16-month prison sentence for tax fraud but will not serve time. The fraud occurred between 2012 and 2013 while he played for Barcelona. Sánchez used shell companies to hide income from image rights, transferring them to a Maltese company he largely owned. This case is similar to those of other players like Marcelo and Javier Mascherano, who also accepted prison sentences to avoid trials.
