Dani Alves Takes To Social Media To Call Barcelona’s Chief Agent A ‘Liar’

Barcelona endured a tough campaign in Europe and also in the La Liga as the only trophy they managed to lift last season was the Copa del Rey.

They had a number of issues with the squad but the biggest frailty in the squad at the Camp Nou is at the right=back position.

The Catalan giants had Brazilian star Dani Alves take care of that role for almost a decade and he was impeccable in his services to the club, helping them to innumerable trophies.

However, he was allowed to quit the club last summer and Alves decide to join Juventus, where he won the league title and also went into the Champions League final.

He is already moving on from Turin, but Barcelona are yet to find a replacement for him and are still searching high and dry in the transfer market.

Barca claim Alves quit for personal reasons

Alves had a stellar campaign at the Camp Nou, winning almost everything possible.

He became a local for the Barcelona faithful and his chemistry down the flank with Argentine star Lionel Messi was just sensual to watch at times.

He was in his prime even the season before he left the club and many were left wondering why Barcelona did not want to keep him for another season.

His efforts in Turin only intensified those calls and it was not boding well for the Spanish side.

An agent of the La Liga outfit, Josep Maria Bartomeu recently revealed that Alves quit Catalonia for personal reasons.

“Dani does not have any problems with the board, he and I know exactly what his problem is, which is very personal and not sporty,” Bartomeu he said in a recent interview

“He is a very nice guy, he signed three years but left after one,” he added.

He revealed that Alves quit the club for reasons only he and his agent knew but that did not go down well with the player.

Alves calls Bartomeu a cheat

The Brazilian full-back took to social media to vent his anger on these comments and went on to call the Barcelona agent a liar.

The 34-year old, who is usually outspoken may have seen an opportunity to come out with the truth on social media but he decided to keep it in the dark and only gave a hint about the comments.

“Lies!” was the only word that Alves put on his Instagram account next to a link with Bartomeu’s words.

It will be interesting to see if this issue is prolonged now that the player has gotten involved.
