He was accused of concealing income related to his image rights.
But, he has been acquitted of another possible tax offences committed in 2015, also related to the collection of his image rights while he was employed by Real Madrid.
Despite the verdict, Ancelotti is unlikely to serve any time behind bars.
Under Spanish law any sentence under two years for a non-violent crime rarely requires a defendant without previous convictions to serve jail time.
