Dani Alves

Brazil international Dani Alves has dropped a huge hint that he would reunite with manager Pep Guardiola at Manchester City next season.

The right-back is available on a Bosman move this summer after he decided to mutually cut his ties with Juventus. The 34-year-old had attended a charity event in Brazil last week prior to his release from Juventus, where he gave a suggestion that he could link up with the Citizens.

All over the world, the greatest challenge faced by champions is the motivation to win the same battle over and over again.

How to make sure that the hunger to keep winning never disappears.

Pep Guardiola on his last news conference as he left the most successful team witnessed in the 21stcentury famously said that inability to motivate his troops was the main reason he decided his time was up at the Camp Nou.

Former Barcelona defender Dani Alves is taking no chances this time at Juventus as he has reportedly asked the Turin based club for a contract extension. The full back joined last term for free from Barcelona, claiming the Catalan side was ungrateful.

After helping Juve win yet another Scudetto and reach the final of the Champions League, Alves wants guarantee for his immediate future with the move. Reports in Brazil claim the 34-year old asked Juve to extend his deal to at least 2019 or he could walk away now that there are numerous prospective employers.

Daniel Alves went through his debut season as a player of Juventus and it was a successful campaign as the Brazilian defender helped the Italian club in lifting their 6th consecutive Serie A title.

They also managed to reach the finals of the UEFA Champions League and Daniel Alves played a huge role in this feat as the experienced player was a regular starter in both competitions.

Former Barcelona defender DaniAlves has proven himself crucial to the UEFA Champions League dream of Juventus.

The Brazilian proved this with his brilliant display in the semi-final clash with Monaco. He contributed both assists that helped Gonzalo Higuain net a brace against the youthful French side. They go into the return leg at home with full confidence as they are almost assured of a favourable result.

Former Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez says that the club should consider bringing back defender Dani Alves to the club in the summer.

The Brazilian joined Juventus on a free transfer in the summer. He has already made a huge impact at the Italian club, who have been able to secure a 3-0 win over Barcelona in the first leg at the Juventus stadium. As Alves prepares for a return to the Camp Nou where he spent eight years of his career, Xavi has instigated the talk about a potential return to the Spanish outfit on a permanent basis.

Juventus defender Dani Alves reckons that the club are in good condition to win the Champions League this season.

Even though Juventus are looking to win the domestic league title for a sixth consecutive season, they have been unable to win the Champions League. Inside, their last success in the tournament was back in 1996 when the likes of Alessandro del Piero were at the peak of their careers. Several generations of players have since come and gone, but Italian club have been unable to make a difference. The closest that Juventus have come since then is reaching two finals, with the most recent being in the 2014-15 season when they were beaten by Barcelona.

Former Barcelona defender Dani Alves has slammed the directors of the club, labelling them “very false and ungrateful.”

The Brazil international left Camp Nou last year on a free transfer move to Turin to play for the Serie A defending champions Juventus. Spanish outfit ABC interviewed him where he spoke badly about the management of Barcelona.

Almost everyone has written off the hopes of Barcelona getting back into the Champions League after suffering a 4-0 loss against Paris St Germain in the last 16 of the competition. No team in the history of European football has been able to overturn a 4-0 deficit from the first leg.

Former Barcelona defender Dani Alves, though, thinks that if there is any team that can achieve this feat, it may very well be the Catalan club. The Brazilian defender is widely known for his long spell with the Catalan club. He moved to the Camp Nou in the summer of 2008 for a figure of £ 25 million.

Juventus are on the verge of winning a historic sixth Serie A title on the spin. No team in the history of Italian football has won the crown more than five times on the bounce, with Inter Milan the last before I Bianconeri to achieve that feat during the early '00s.

Massimiliano Allegri’s men have been irrepressible in their bid to become the first to win sixth titles on the bounce, adding to their already long list of achievements since their revival under Antonio Conte in 2011 as the dominant force in the country.
