The statements of Dani Alves
Dani Alves's word was one of the most anticipated of the last week.
The accusation against the Brazilian soccer player escalated greatly in Barcelona and the justice system immediately took up the case.
Although Alves confirmed that he was at the scene, he denied contact with the girl who accuses him.
"I was in that place, I was with more people enjoying. Everyone who knows me knows that I like to dance. Enjoying, but without invading the space of others. I'm very sorry, but I don't know who that lady is. Never I have invaded someone's space without authorization," Dani said before the judge.
However, later there were some points in which the right-back would have contradicted himself, specifically in the event that he rectified that if he had contact, but in a consensual manner
.
Given this situation, the case takes a new course and the investigation is underway.
