    Broadcaster TVE said, without identifying its sources, the 32-year-old would make this payment as a gesture of good will.

    The report added Rolando will reiterate at a hearing on July 31 that he is innocent and has never hidden any income from the taxman or committed any tax fraud in Spain.
