Now playing for the Ligue 1 giants, Paris Saint-Germain, the Argentine was found guilty of defrauding Spanish government of £1.14m tax payment during his time at Real Madrid between 2010 and 2014.
However, sentences under two years for those with no previous convictions are often suspended in Spain and so he is unlikely to serve time.
He admitted to two separate counts of fraud – each of which will carry a six-month sentence – and will pay 60 per cent fine on top of his arrears, coming to £1.76m.
The Argentinian is unlikely to spend any time behind bars as sentences of under two-years are usually suspended, providing the convicted has no criminal record.
Di Maria’s charges relate to the player’s image rights with Los Blancos in 2012 and 2013.
