Dani Alves: Witness gives shocking statement against Alves, accuses of slapping, forcing the victim

However, witnesses have claimed different versions of the story. The incident allegedly took place on December 30, 2022, at a nightclub in Barcelona.

Dani Alves

Former Barcelona right-back Dani Alves remains in prison after his bail appeal was denied by the court. The Brazil international was arrested due to allegations of sexual assault on a 23-year-old woman at a nightclub.

As reported by Spanish media outlet Diario AS, the full-back initially turned down claims of any wrongdoing and claimed he didn't even touch the woman. While Alves' version of the incident has since changed, the Brazilian has maintained his innocence.

However, witnesses have claimed different versions of the story. The incident allegedly took place on December 30, 2022, at a nightclub in Barcelona. Spanish outlet El Periodico released the complainant's version of the incident.

It read (via MARCA), "Dani Alves forced her to sit on top of him, threw her to the floor, forced her to give him oral stimulation to which she actively resisted, slapped her, lifted her off the floor and penetrated her until he ejaculated."

With serious allegations like the one against Alves taking time to get resolved, the full-back could be expected to stay in prison for at least a year or even two (according to Football Espana).

The 39-year-old last played for the Mexican club Pumas UNAM. Alves has represented European giants like Barcelona, Juventus, and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) during his trophy-laden career. He has won a total of 43 trophies during his career which makes him the most decorated player in the history of the game.

Alves was regarded as one of the best right-backs of his time and was especially known for his outstanding crossing ability. The iconic full-back has also been capped 126 times for Brazil and was also a part of their 2022 FIFA World Cup squad. The 39-year-old has reportedly recently made his debut in prison football.
