Alves went on the Spanish television programme "Y ahora Sonsoles" to refute the accusations after they were made. “I’d like to deny everything,” he said. “I was there, I was with other people having a good time. Everyone knows me and knows that I love to dance, but without invading other people’s space, always respecting those around me.”
Approximately 40 kilometers outside of Barcelona, at Sant Esteve Sesrovires, Alves was transferred to the Brians 1 prison. Before a decision is reached regarding which area of the prison facility would lodge him, the footballer is presently in a block for new arrivals, according to prison sources consulted by the Spanish news agency Europa Press.
Alves' future with Pumas was in doubt following his participation in the 2022 World Cup with Brazil. The former Barcelona player's return to Mexico was by no means a given. Alves announced on social media on January 1 that he would be staying with the seven-time Liga MX winners for an additional six months. “We’re going to go into round two with the confidence and character that are our identity,” he wrote. “I’m always positive and itching to make history for the club. See you soon, Pumas.”
