Dani Alves sentenced to four years and six months in prison for rape. Former Barcelona star was found guilty of sexual assault last week.
Barca removed his name from its website, where he appeared in the list of club legends. He played 408 matches in the Catalan jersey and notably won three Champions Leagues. The 40-year-old intends to appeal his prison sentence, which includes conditional release for five years after his release, a fine of 150,000 euros and a ban on contact with victim for nine years.
