Judge charges Barça for tax fraud in Neymar signing
02/20/2014
National Court judge Pablo Ruz has accusedBarcelonaof a tax infringement over the signing of Neymar, after Spain's public prosecutor asked him to lay charges on the club for defrauding the tax office €9.1 million.
Ruz, who is also in the process of investigating the club's president Sandro Rosell for misappropriation over the signing, has taken this decision after the prosecutor Jose Perals requested the move in a letter stating that one of the signs of tax fraud " is the existence of simulated contracts and 'financial engineering' with the intention of committing fraud against public finances."
In his order, the Judge states that "There is currently sufficient evidence to warrant an investigation into a possible crime committed by Football Club Barcelona against public finances."
