But, because of the first first offense while
in Spain, Ronaldo did not have to be in jail.
Marcelo
also has the same fate. He also had to pay a fine of 753 thousand euros or
equivalent to Rp 872 million and received a suspended sentence for four months. Marcelo finally found an agreement with the prosecutor after 40 percent or as much as 196,367 euros of the total initial assumption by the prosecutor was considered no longer part of embezzlement.

The attitude of the Spanish government has
actually drawn a lot of criticism from the players. Even this problem is
considered to be one of the reasons Ronaldo moved to Juventus.
Marcelo
himself later also mentioned that he would follow in the footsteps of Ronaldo.
But Marcelo firmly denied it. According to him, these rumors are very
ridiculous. "This is an element that is hardly worthy of discussion. I am very happy at Real Madrid, this is my home and I still have many years left in my contract," Marcelo said, as reported by Tribal Football.
