Former Barcelona footballer Dani Alves has been behind bars in Barcelona for almost a year.
The Brazilian is accused of sexually assaulting a young girl in one of Barcelona’s clubs in December 2022.
Initially, the former defender denied the accusation, asserting later that the sexual encounter had occurred with mutual consent.
However, investigations do not seem to favor the Brazilian, and recently, the trial date has been set to determine the outcome.
The trial for the former player will take place on February 5th, 6th, and 7th, 2024. If found guilty, Dani Alves could face up to nine years in prison, according to the prosecution, which also seeks compensation of €150,000 for the victim.”
