According to Brazilian media, after seeing his former teammate Dani Alves in prison, Neymar decided to bring his own lawyer to Barcelona and was willing to spend money to set Dani Alves free.

Former Barcelona defender Dani Alves has been in prison for nearly a year since he was detained at Brians 2 prison (Barcelona) on January 20, 2023. Dani Alves was accused by a 23-year-old girl of her in the bathroom of her home after they both returned from Sutton nightclub.

According to a Barcelona court report, the detention will end when the trial begins at 10 a.m. on February 5. However, it can last until the 6th or 7th of the same month if many circumstances arise. The victim who accused Dani Alves of аssаult is demanding 150,000 euros in compensation. This person’s lawyer confirmed that his client received serious physical and psychological consequences after the incident in the nightclub. In addition, the sentence that this girl’s lawyer proposed to the Barcelona court is 12 years in prison if the former Brazilian player does not compensate adequately.

According to Brazilian media, Dani Alves has contacted his close friend Neymar, his former teammate at Barcelona, to seek financial and legal help in the coming days.

“Brazilian media UOL claimed that Neymar’s father transferred money to help defend Dani Alves. This amount of money was used to pay a fine and compensation to mitigate damages worth 150,000 euros to the Spanish court. This amount of money could help reduce Dani Alves’ sentence in case of conviction.

In addition, Dani Alves appointed Gustavo Xisto, one of the oldest legal representatives for Neymar’s father’s companies, as lawyer. At the same time, remove Dinorah Santana – Dani Alves’ ex-wife from asset management,” Marca said.
