Dani Alves, already in court to testify at his own request before the judge

key monday for Dani Alves. The former Barça player declares at his own request in court number 15 of Barcelona. The footballer, in provisional prison without bail since January 20, has already been transferred from the Brians 2 prison in a van driven by the Mossos d’Esquadra.

The Brazilian, accused of allegedly raping a young woman at the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona during the night of December 30 to 31 of last year, asked to give his version of the facts before the magistrate. Thus, he clings to an article of the criminal procedure law that allows a person being investigated to testify as many times as he deems appropriate during his criminal proceedings. Although the investigation is practically closed, the judge gave its approval.

This is now the fifth statement from the side, who began by assuring that he did not know the young woman who had denounced him for an alleged sexual assault in the aforementioned disco to ensure that it was she who pounced on him when he relieved himself in the bathroom. Finally, he confessed that they had had consensual sex and that he had hidden it to protect his wife, the Canarian model. Joana Sanzwho announced his separation from the soccer player through social networks: “He cheated on me while my mother was dying,” he said.
