Ancelotti tax fraud trial ends, prosecutors seek four-year jail

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti’s tax fraud trial wrapped up Thursday in Spain, with public prosecutors maintaining their demand he be jailed for four years and nine months for allegedly hiding income from the tax office.

Ancelotti denied having intentionally committed tax fraud when he took the stand on Wednesday on the opening day of the trial at the High Court of Justice in Madrid, saying he “never considered committing fraud”.
