It's not like he was the mastermind behind it all. Still the best player in the world.

Using offshore companies for image rights....I suspect they have gone after him because of the amount involved. It's pretty common for players to have image rights deals through companies for tax reasons. he'll be one of many...Spanish economy is in the stter and historically tax evasion has been totally "acceptable" as it is in Italy. Loads more to come>

I reckon it's an oversight - Messi would've been 19/20/21 in the 08/09 season? That or his Dad is at fault.
