Dani Alves’ defense team failed to pay his €1 million bail and the Brazilian international remains in custody in Barcelona. The parole amount was only received today at 14:00 (Spanish time), which means the defender will have to spend at least one more night in Brians 2, the penitentiary center where he has been held since January last year .
Dani Alves’ bank accounts were frozen after he was accused of raping a young woman in a Barcelona nightclub on December 31, 2022.
He was sentenced to four and a half years in prison, but all parties involved (the defense, the prosecutor’s office and the victim’s defense) decided for various reasons to appeal the sentence to a higher court.
Dani Alves’ defense team once again asked for parole, which was granted pending appeals. The player will have to surrender his passports (Brazilian and Spanish), periodically appear to the authorities and pay a deposit of 1 million euros.
And this is where the problem arose. Due to the lack of money, newspaper La Vanguardia reported yesterday that the Canarian player has the support of his friend Neymar, who has already offered 150 thousand euros, which Dani Alves paid the victim as compensation. The problem will be resolved through the father of the Al-Hilal star.
