Ronaldo, Mourinho accused of hiding millions in tax havensDecember 3, 2016 - 17:34 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo could have "hidden 150 million euros in tax havens in Switzerland and the British Virgin Islands", according to claims in German newspaper Der Spiegel. Leaked documents obtained by 12 European newspapers suggest Ronaldo and Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho could be involved in a multimillion-Euro "tax evasion and money laundering" scheme, The Mirror says. The 12 papers involved say over the next three weeks they plan to release details of an investigation into widespread alleged corruption under the collective name "Football Leaks". The newspapers claim Ronaldo and Mourinho may have benefited from a tax system orchestrated by their agent Jorge Mendes. But Mendes's company, Gestifute, hit back at the claims, saying on Friday that Ronaldo and Mourinho had "fully respected their obligations vis-a-vis the Spanish and British authorities". Gestifute added that neither man had "been implicated in legal proceedings of the tax evasion commission in Spain."
