Former Real Madrid full-back Roberto Carlos
is facing a jail sentence in his native Brazil
over unpaid alimony fees, according to
reports.
Marca states the legendary left-back owes
61k reals (€16.5k) to his ex-partner Barbara
Thurler with an ongoing court case in Rio De
Janiero.
The report cites media reports in Brazil which
state the former Brazil international, currently
an ambassador for Madrid, is claiming
financial problems for the delay in payments.
Prosecutors are asking for the two-time World
Cup winner to face jail time of three months
due to the delay, which is in relation to two of
his children.
Carlos’s current wife Mariana Lucon has
recently given birth to his ninth child, while
fellow 2002 World Cup winner has previously
been sent to jail twice for failure to meet
alimony deadlines.
The 44-year-old made over 500 appearances
for Los Blancos between 1996 and 2007,
winning four La Liga titles and three
Champions Leagues.
