Spain prosecutors call for two-year jail for Neymar

Madrid (AFP) – Spanish prosecutors recommended Wednesday that Barcelona’s Brazilian star Neymar be handed a two-year jail sentence and a fine of 10 million euros ($10.6 million) over his allegedly fraudulent transfer to the club.

The striker is accused of, along with several accomplices, having concealed a portion of the cost of his multi-million-dollar transfer from Santos to Barca in 2013.
