The Barcelona defender Gerard Piqué was fined €10,500 (£7,600) by a Spanish judge on Tuesday for abusing police after the car he was travelling in was given a parking ticket.
This could be because it launched early, our rights have expired, there was a legal issue, or for another reason.
Piqué wrote an apology to the court hearing in Barcelona for the public order offence that took place on 13 October last year.
Judge María Asunción González fined Piqué for “disrespectful behaviour and being verbally aggressive”.
