Just over a month ago, the defender Dani Alves returned to FC Barcelona after five years of being away from the whole of Catalonia. However, his arrival could be given much earlier, after a chat between the side and the former president of Barcelona, Josep Maria Bartomeu, was disclosed in the last hours.
The conversation took place after the 4-0 win against Liverpool at Anfield for the rematch of the 2019 Champions League semifinals. After this resounding fall, Dani Alves sent a direct message to the former Barça president to make his services available for the next season.
“Mr. President, everything okay? I want to go back there, I want to go home and I want to play the 2022 World Cup as a Barça player! Let’s put pride aside, we need each other and we know it! Greetings!”, was the Brazilian’s message.

In addition, in the WhatsApp chat, the response of Bartomeu was observed, who asked him to speak with Eric Abidal, who was the sports director of the institution.
“Hello Dani, to return, no problem, but the Barça technicians should be satisfied. Have you talked to Abidal? Tight hug. Barto ”. Dani Alves replied “I can talk to him if you want!”, While the manager concluded: “I inform Abi and you are called.”
Although that time the hiring did not take place, now Dani Alves is in the Barça store after communicating with the president Joan Laporta and his former teammate Xavi Hernández to see if they wanted him.
