Clearly the problem is systemic, meaning it's not really individuals doing dodgy tax evasion schemes but some horribly unclear tax laws that allow individuals to interpret them in one way and the government then fuck them over by proclaiming that it should have been interpreted some other way. Because I refuse to believe Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo and Mourinho are all evil tax frauders (and no other international players in other countries are... and Mourinho or Ronaldo didn't also commit tax fraud in Italy or the UK).

Falcao dropped Mendes because of tax issues, same agent as Ronaldo and Mourinho. There was a clear intent to fraud in the Neymar transfer. I can't tell for Messi.

The way the Fuentes case was dropped was shady as fuck too, we knew he had customers in top clubs.

But Salzbug has to drop the RB from their name.
They will now play as FC Salzburg most likely.

Evil is a very strong word. Frankly they arent smart enough in that realm to be the evil tax frauders. But they are certainly culpable and sadly ignorance is not a defense.

Yeah no way Ronaldo knows how to avoid tax same with Messi and Neymar. However they can sure pay people who will do it for them. Not saying they intentionally went out to do that but when someone said oh btw i can make u an extra £10million a year if u use this guy for your accounts they going to do it xD

and you wouldnt?
this topic came up last time when messi was first convicted too. most people here acting like theyre saints and would never reduce the amount of tax they had to pay if they could.
these players are simply doing what they thought would legitimately help them reduce their tax and it turns out whoever manages their finances was shit at their job.

Yes I wouldn't. You think people who don't earn millions don't have the chance to reduce their tax or do tax fraud?
They do have the chance and there are many/few who do it. There are also people who don't do it.

What I hate is that rich people do it.
(Insane examples):
What difference does 10 million make to 100 million? Nothing.
What difference does 100 make to 1000? Yeah, ask anyone who earns so little

Lots of countries have different tax brackets depending on your revenue. In France if you earn more than X amount, you have to pay 40 or 50% instead of 25-30% (I'm not sure about the exact numbers). So yeah, you want to avoid paying that much, no matter if you're rich or not. It's a completely different topic, but taxing rich people more isn't the solution to fix a country's budget... And if I was earning millions, I would find ways to pay less taxes while still contributing. Ronaldo has been giving money to charities, it's probably better than giving money to the government x)

I didn't say i wouldn't i just said that they are to stupid enough to do it but they are told about it in terms of "we are saving u money". Directors of companies do it etc etc etc. Would i do it, i would actually not sure. Depends how i change but im very lazy right now and probs wouldn't but again it be down to the agents/sponsors pushing you into stuff i don't know.

Did you have low expectations or did I only pay attention at the wrong times?
