Taxing times for frustrated Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo is due to answer charges of a €14.7m tax fraud in a Spanish courtroom this morning, the latest event in a busy few months for the Real Madrid superstar.

And there could still be plenty more drama to follow.

At the end of last season, Ronaldo and his agent Jorge Mendes set in motion a plan designed to ensure they came out on top no matter what happened this summer.
