Barcelona winger, Neymar, has been found guilty of evading tax by an administrative court of the Federal Revenue in Rio de Janeiro.
The report states that the Barcelona forward is now compelled to pay a total of $188.8 million reales (€45m) in back taxes, interest and penalties.
The Brazil international has the opportunity to appeal the decision.
The decision was taken after Neymar failed to pay at least $63.6m reales through his management companies between 2012 and 2014. The Brazilian is also alleged to owe $125.2m reales in fines and interest.
As if that isn't enough, Neymar is also facing allegations of corruption and fraud in Spain in relation to his transfer from Santos to Barcelona in 2013.
