Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez confessed to tax fraud in Spain of almost €1million.
The Chilean owned up to defrauding the Spanish treasury of €983,000 (£865,000) between 2012 and 2013 when he was playing for Barcelona.
In his statement to a Catalan court, via video link from London, Sanchez confessed to two counts of tax fraud.
According to Europa Press, the Arsenal star is understood to have already returned the money he admitted to withholding.
As a consequence of his repayment, he is not likely to have to face a trial with an agreement to be reached by both parties.
This would involve the defence team of Sanchez negotiating with the prosecution an adequate fine to compensate for the delay in tax payments.
