You have to remember that in the case of Di María he would have already been fined during his time at Real Madrid for the same, at that time he received a fine of two million euros by the Spanish justice.

The Spanish justice blamed the Argentine player for not paying taxes on the money obtained through his image rights during the 2012-2013 season.

Despite this, Di María continued to evade a large part of his profits to the Sunpex company, which was founded by him with the main headquarters in Panama.

For the year 2017, specifically in August, the Argentine player, former player of Manchester United, Real Madrid and Benfica, would sign an agreement with Sunpex where he would send all his earnings obtained by signing Adidas, all with the purpose of evading taxes.

This is how several companies negotiated with Sunpex the economic amount to pay to be able to have the PSG player in various advertising campaigns, some of these campaigns are estimated to be valued at 150,000 euros.
