Official: Man City closing in on Dani Alves as he rescinds Juve contract
As Calciomercato.com exclusively reported a few weeks ago, Dani Alves has rejected to sign a new contract with Juventus asking to leave the bianconeri to join Manchester City as a free agent.
Juventus accepted Dani Alves’ request although they are clearly not happy about his decision given that they will have to sign a new right-back in the summer making an investment that had been not planned.
“Juventus Football Club is to part company with Dani Alves after agreeing to a termination of the player's contract.
Alves lifted two trophies in his single season in Turin, contributing to a third consecutive domestic league and cup double for the club before helping the team reach the UEFA Champions League final.
The Brazilian made a total of 33 appearances for the Bianconeri, having a hand in 12 goals (six goals, six assists), seven of which came in European matches”, Juventus said through their official website. Dani Alves is now going to sign for Manchester City moving to the Etihad Stadium as a free agent.
