Danny Alves: I was close to getting to Real Madrid, Juvenus betrayed me

Paris Saint-Germaint defender Dani Alves has been protagonist to an interview for “ESPN” recently.

In the proposal for the media giant, he has said he has refused bids from Chelsea and Real Madrid to join Barcelona.

I'll be honest with you, I was 95% close to joining Real Madrid. However, Del Nido [former Seville president] is a very strong man,” he said, writes Periscopi.

“Chelsea also got involved in talks and began negotiating. He spoke with a team, and they were told that the other team is willing to pay even more than they are.

I was very close to going to Real Madrid, but fate intervened. He said that history would be written in Barcelona, as I had dreamed of as a child.

“Juventus? I spent inappropriate time in Italy, Turin. I felt betrayed because I didn't get what I was promised.

And that's the worst feeling. I made the story with Juventu and asked some people there what they thought about Daniel Alves.

There's no one there who doesn't love me. Another relationship I had with those who brought me there.

That was my decision. I respect history and Juventis very much. I made a lot of friends there. If people are happy then everything comes back.

I felt I was deceived and removed from Juventu.” /Periscope. com/
