Dani Alves Arrested Over Sex Scandal In Spain

According to authorities, the alleged incident happened on December 31 at a nightclub in Barcelona.

In line with viral video making rounds online, police vehicles were see arriving the court to take the footballer to prison.

In Spain, the accusation of sexual abuse can refer to anything from unwanted and uninvited groping to rape. Police stated that they were unable to provide any other information on the case.

Recall that we revealed earlier this year that Dani Alves was a subject of a police investigation in Barcelona over an alleged sexual assault that took place with the legendary Brazilian athlete in a nightclub.

Futballnews gathered that respected Spanish newspaper ABC did recognize the defender as the man who the accused sex crime victim described as the perpetrator on the scene.

The right-back, who is 39 and was a former Barcelona player who last month represented Brazil at the World Cup in Qatar, is reported to have denied any misconduct.

The alleged sexual assault happened at Sutton, a popular nightclub in Barcelona’s center that draws celebrities from all over the world.

ABC said: “The Catalan police went to the venue and when the victim spoke to them about the incident, the supposed aggressor had already left the nightclub.”

“Contacted by this paper, the footballer’s entourage have denied the allegations.”

“They insist the information is false, although Alves was inside the venue, albeit for a short space of time.”

With 126 international matches under his belt, the 39-year-old footballer ranks second among all Brazilian players in terms of caps.

Before transferring to Juventus, Alves played almost ten years at Barcelona from 2008 to 2016.

He has played for the Turin club, Paris Saint-Germain, and Sao Paulo during the last five years before making a temporary return to Barcelona in 2021.

In July, he moved to a Mexican side Punas UNAM.
