The sexual assault took place at a popular Barcelona nightclub overnight December 30-31 2021, according to reports from the Spanish media.

Reports say the player was accused of putting his hands down the woman’s pants.

Alves, 39, has confirmed he was at the night club at the time but has denied any wrongdoing, telling private Spanish television Antena 3 earlier this month that he has “never seen” the woman before.

“I was there, at that place, with more people having fun. Everybody knows I love to dance. Having a good time but without invading the space of others,” the former Barcelona and Juventus player added.

Dani Alves, who currently plays for Pumas UNAM in Mexico, was in Barcelona on holiday following his involvement in the just concluded World Cup in Qatar.

A Barcelona court said earlier this month it had opened a probe “into an alleged crime of sexual assault as a result of a complaint filed by a woman against a footballer”.
