Jose Mourinho accepts one year prison sentence over tax fraud

The former Mancherster United boss has avoided the prison sentence in exchange for a €2m fine.

According to the UK Independent, the 56-year-old owed €3.3m in undeclared revenue while he was managing Real Madrid in 2011 and 2012.

A press release from Mourinho's representatives Gestifute Media last year said that Mourinho paid more than €26m in taxes, with an average rate of more than 41%.

The Portuguese manager is yet to return to management since being dismissed by Manchester United last December.
