Dani Alves has been found guilty of sexual assault and has been sentenced to 4 years and 6 months in prison, along with compensating the victim financially. The footballer was held in Brians 2 prison until the trial, and now with a final sentence, he has faced consequences for his image. One of them being FC Barcelona removing him from the honorary section on their website dedicated to “historical players.” Previously, Alves was listed alongside Barça legends like Jordi Alba, Busquets, Piqué, Messi, Iniesta, and Luis Suárez. However, he has now been removed from that section, reportedly due to his conviction. Some remnants of Dani Alves’ time on the Barça website can still be found. Searching for ‘Dani Alves’ and ‘Historical players’ linked to the club’s website email address, a text appears with Alves’ name in a list of images that were previously displayed in that section. It remains to be seen if FC Barcelona will issue a statement regarding the removal of Dani Alves as a historical player on their website, or if they will choose to stay silent on the matter.
