“Very touched emotionally. Affected and not wanting to relate to anyone. According to prison sources transferred to ABC, this was the first night of Dani Alves in the Brians 1 prison (Barcelona), after the head of the Investigating Court 15 of Barcelona ordered his entry into prison, accused of sexually assaulting a young woman of 23 years, last December 30, at the Sutton nightclub. The Brazilian soccer player finds himself in the income module, where he will spend the whole weekend. Monday when he will be interviewed by the center's treatment team. Upon his arrival, the doctor visited him. The same routine was repeated yesterday, the doctor and the nurse examined him again. When he entered, explaining known sources to this newspaper, he was visibly affected. The officials gave him a bottle of water. He didn't want to eat dinner, he didn't have a camera. When the prison workers insisted, they finally accepted a few pieces of fruit and a book for the night.
"His arrival has been like that of any other prisoner, it weighs on the media," prison officials point out to this newspaper. During the first days a psychologist, a social educator and a lawyer will be waiting for you. Then they will place it permanently in a module. The forecast is that it will be module 5, "the least conflictive", although it stresses that "it will not receive any privileged treatment". Of course, his forecast is that he will have more visits than other inmates: "We already had to experience this with Sandro Rosell in Brians 2", the same interlocutors point out. For the rest, "everything is within normality."
The reactions have not been long in coming and the arrest of the Brazilian has fallen like a jug of cold water at Barça, where Alves has spent a good part of his career and where he left a mark for his extroverted talent and his football quality, which led him to become He became the best right-back in the world and won three Champions Leagues and six Leagues, among many other titles. Xavi Hernández was the first to speak out, taking advantage of the press conference for the match that the Barca team is playing today against Getafe at the Camp Nou (18.30:XNUMX p.m. / Movistar). It must be remembered that the man from Egarte had him under his orders last year and he was his teammate for many seasons at the Barça club. “I am surprised, shocked and in shock. It is a matter of justice and will dictate whatever. I feel very bad for him. Surprised by how Dani is and how he has been with us. Shocked, I can't say anything more", commented the Catalan coach visibly serious and affected.
His current club, Pumas, has also reacted. And with less consideration. The president of the Mexican entity, Leopoldo Silva, appeared publicly as soon as the player was jailed to communicate the unilateral termination "with just cause" of his contract. The president justified it: "We cannot allow the conduct of any person to harm our work philosophy, which has been an example throughout history in the training and development of young athletes in our country."
With Alves questioned, only his wife, Joana Sanz, seems to believe unconditionally in his innocence. "I know who she is and how respectful she is," insists the Spanish model, dejected after also losing her mother this past week to a cruel illness.
