Anti-corruption prosecutors are pushing for current Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu and his predecessor, Sandro Rosell, to be jailed over the 'Neymar-gate' scandal.

A prison sentence of two years and three months has been requested for Bartomeu on charges of tax fraud, while Rosell also faces a count of embezzlement and so would do seven years and three months in the slammer if the prosecution got their way.

Barcelona could be hit with heavy fine

Sources have confirmed to Spanish news agency EFE that the indictment submitted to Judge Pablo Ruz by the prosecutor in charge of the case also calls for Barça - who are to be tried as a legal entity - to be fined €22 million for defrauding the taxman to the tune of €13m across 2011, 2013 and 2014.
