Barcelona defender, Javier Mascherano has been sentenced to 12 months
of jail term after pleading guilty in tax
fraud case. He was also fined €815,000. The former Liverpool player was

jail-time needed to be served is less than two years but he will face the jail
if he commits the offence again in the next 1 year.
