Monaco forward Radamel Falcao will reportedly plead guilty to committing tax fraud during his time at Atletico Madrid.
The 31-year-old had been accused of not declaring €5.6m (£4.9m) in image rights relating to his time with the La Liga side between 2011 and 2013.
According to Marca, the Colombian will now plead guilty to the charge and accept a fine of €6.9m (£6.1m) in order to avoid the issue being taken to trial.
The player, who has had loan spells at Chelsea and Manchester United in the Premier League, already handed over €8.2m (£7.2m) to Spanish tax authorities earlier this year so will actually be due a refund of €1.3m (£1.1m) as a result of the agreement.
Falcao has been in fine form for the defending Ligue 1 champions this term, scoring nine goals in their first six games of the season.
