Lionel was found guilty of three counts of
tax fraud, a statement from the court said on Wednesday and was sentenced to
21months in jail by a court in Barcelona.
However, under Spanish law a prison sentence under two years can be served under probation, meaning Messi and his father are unlikely to go to jail.
The court ordered Messi to pay a fine of around 2 million euros ($2.21 million) and his father to pay 1.5 million euros for the crimes. ($1 = 0.9034 euros)
