Daniel Alves, arrested for rape in Barcelona and released after paying million-dollar bail, will stay in a luxurious mansion he bought when he was playing for the club
On the morning of this Monday, 25th, the former Brazilian player Daniel Alves was released from prison Spain, after having his bail worth 1 million euros (around R$5.4 million) paid by an undisclosed person. But, according to the Spanish press, the person responsible for shelling out the millionaire amount was the Dutch midfielder Memphis Depayof Madrid’s athletic. The two worked together in Barcelona in 2021 and since then they have been very good friends.
Depay, last week, commented on the Brazilian’s possible provisional freedom and also cited the case of the Frenchman Benjamin Mendywho was also arrested for rape. “I don’t come from a calm environment. If people read my book, they will understand. Dani Alves and Benjamin Mendy are also my friends”said the Dutch player.

Last Wednesday, the 20th, the Spanish Court granted provisional freedom to the former player. However, it established conditions and precautionary measures so that this could happen. Payment of the million-dollar bail was the main one, but another foresees that Daniel Alves will appear at a hearing once a week, every Friday. The former full-back will stay in a luxurious mansion that he acquired when he was a Barcelona player, on the outskirts of the Catalan city. The former athlete’s Brazilian and Spanish passports were handed over to the authorities and, therefore, he cannot leave the country. Furthermore, he cannot come within a thousand meters of the victim and cannot have any type of contact with him.
