The 44 titles that make

Dani Alves

the most successful player in football history have gone down the toilet in the VIP room of the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona, ​​where a 23-year-old young woman from Barcelona accuses him of having locked her up, slapped her, insulted, forced to give him fellatio and vaginally raped until ejaculation.

Dani Alves,

39

, arrived in Spain last week from Mexico to bury his mother-in-law, defend his innocence, and rejoin the discipline of the National University Club, known as the UNAM Pumas, as soon as possible.

His objective was to occupy the right side this Sunday in the third day of the Mexican league, but the head of the Investigating Court number 15 of Barcelona has changed his plans, decreeing prison without bail for the Brazilian international, who is already sleeping in the Brians prison 1 from Barcelona.

After seven records in as many clubs throughout his career, the eighth, with a frontal photo, a profile photo and fingerprints, seems to be the last of his career.

The former Barcelona defender faces a sentence

of four to 12 years in prison for an alleged crime of sexual assault.

Just a month and a half ago, Dani Alves said goodbye to the World Cup in Qatar after losing to Brazil in the quarterfinals against Croatia.

Until January he did not plan to rejoin his umpteenth sports adventure with the Pumas, so he decided to say goodbye to the year with his second wife,

the Tenerife model Joana Sanz

, in the city where they met in 2016.

The night of December 30, however, Dani had reserved to be with her friends.

A dinner and a few drinks that continued at two in the morning in the VIP room of this nightclub in the center of the city.

Dani dances, talks to girls, occupies a table and, after three in the morning, meets the alleged victim, who had come to the premises with two friends.

Joana Sanz explained her marriage to Dani Alves this way: «We respect the life that each one has separately.

If you want to go out and drink even the water from the vases with your friends, no problem

[...].

Living separately and with respect is what maintains a relationship.

According to the victim's testimony before the judge, the friends arrived at the VIP area invited by a group of friends of Mexican origin.

There a waiter told them that there was someone who wanted to invite them to his table.

It was Daniel Alves.

The victim claims that she did not know that he was a footballer.

«I am a petanque player in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat»

, the Brazilian appeared, but the Mexicans told him the truth.

At some point they danced until, always according to the victim's testimony, Alves put his hand to her penis several times, which she withdrew in bewilderment.

At around half past four in the morning he told her to follow her behind a door and when he went through it he saw the small bathroom where the alleged attack took place.

In his statement before the judge, before the Mossos, and the most serious video that is remembered in his entire career, and that he sent to the

Antena 3 program Y ahora Sonsoles

, Alves insisted on his innocence: «I was in that place, I was with more people enjoying.

Everyone who knows me knows that I like to dance, but I have never invaded someone's space without authorization [...].

You arrive at a bathroom and you don't have to ask who is there [...].

I'm very sorry, but I don't know who that lady is.

I have never seen her in my life.

I don't know her name, I don't know her ».

A contradiction, like many others that the footballer apparently fell into, and that has weighed down his 45-minute statement before the judge.

The first to leave the bathroom was Dani, who left the disco with his friend.

The victim went looking for her friends, she began to cry and

suffered an anxiety attack,

for which they called the security personnel, who activated the protocol for assistance to victims of sexual violence.

First they tried to locate Dani Alves without success, while they turned to the Mossos.

Five minutes later a patrol car showed up and the young woman explained the events that had occurred to an agent, identifying Dani Alves.

"I know who my husband is, I know how I met him, I know how respectful he is because not even when he was getting to know me did he disrespect me," says Joana Sanz, whom he met at the end of his first stage at the Barça in 2016, and with whom he would secretly marry in Paris the following year.

«I have seen many times how women approach the booth, daring, to try something with my husband in my face.

If they do it in my presence, I don't want to imagine when I'm not there, "denounces the Canarian model.

The young woman was taken by ambulance to the Hospital Clínic, where an examination was carried

out in search of biological remains

, and on January 2 she formalized her complaint before the Mossos d'Esquadra, providing the medical report and the clothes she was wearing that same night.

Dani Alves, meanwhile, resumed his life in Mexico.

He returned to play with the Pumas on January 8 and, last week, he asked permission to travel to the Canary Islands, because his mother-in-law was about to die.

In fact, she died last Friday.

His lawyers and the Central Unit for Sexual Assaults (UCAS) of the Mossos, who are conducting the investigation, end up making an appointment with Alves yesterday, Friday, at a point in Barcelona, ​​which ends with the arrest of the player, who is first taken to the police station. , and later to the City of Justice, in a police car with tinted windows.

The soccer player remained in the dungeons while the victim gave a statement before the judge, who has seen great strength in the girl's testimony.

She also received conclusive reports from the Mossos with biological evidence of the alleged rape, in the bathroom, the young woman's dress, the medical report and the recordings of the security cameras.

Both the Prosecutor's Office and the private prosecution asked the judge that Alves enter prison without bail.

The Mexican Pumas, with whom the Brazilian had signed a salary of

3.2 million euros per year

, have decided to terminate the contract with the footballer.

Dani Alves has also appeared on the list of defaulters with the Spanish Public Treasury, to which he owes more than millions of euros.
