FORMER WORLD CUP-winning Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro has been handed a 10-month jail sentence, it has emerged today.
The 41-year-old ex-Real Madrid and Juventus star has been punished for ignoring orders to keep out of his property following its seizure by authorities.
Cannavaro is currently under investigation for tax evasion, with authorities seizing approximately €1m worth of goods from him last October.
The Italian football legend, who currently manages Guangzhou Evergrande in China, is now expected to fulfil a 10-month sentence, while his wife and brother were also given custodial sentences.
However, the trio’s sentences are currently suspended pending an appeal.

Great footage. A hint of offside!! Big Sam had a ‘mare by the looks of things. Turners cross has come on alot – the shed was literally.. a shed
Im fairness to Sam he was down a few players and had to play himself. He was late 30s and the jerseys barely fit him. We played the most attractive football that season with a youth team and some old pros winning the first division easily. I was sad to see him go. But the weekly bucket collection door to door that he himself had to partake in had an effect on him. Fondly remembered.in limerick
Decent crowd
Great to see the way the cross was back in the day. City had a handy team back then.
That would be Cormac Kanchelskis to give him his correct title.
