Brazil charges Barca star Neymar with tax evasion

Barcelona and Brazil star Neymar was charged Tuesday by Brazilian authorities with tax evasion and falsifying documents over a seven-year period.

The federal prosecutor's office alleged that the striker committed the crimes between 2006, when he was just a promising youngster at Brazilian football club Santos, and 2013 when he signed for Barcelona.
