Currently in detention for a case of rape on a young woman in Barcelona, ​​Dani Alves wanted to apologize publicly from his prison to his wife Joana Sanz. “The first thing I want to do is take advantage of this interview to apologize to the only person I have to apologize to, which is my wife, Joana Sanz,” said the former Blaugrana.

“I’ve personally apologized to her before here in prison, but I have to do it publicly because the story is public, the offense is public and she deserves this public apology,” he continued. As a reminder, the former PSG player has been incarcerated since January 20 in the Brians prison complex, located about forty kilometers from Barcelona.

The man who has seen his request for release rejected twice, made these revelations in an interview with Mayka Navarro for the Catalan newspaper La Vanguardia (the vanguard). “I thank you for everything you do for me, your role is not easy. I am certain that I was not mistaken in choosing Joana as my wife, even if perhaps she was mistaken about me…» concluded the prisoner.

The most successful footballer in history, with 43 trophies, Alves had the most glorious period of his career at Barça, between 2008 and 2016, where he won 23 trophies. In Qatar, he became at 39, the oldest Brazilian player to participate in a World Cup.
