Dani Alves’ contract with Liga MX team Pumas has been terminated after the 39-year-old was detained on suspicion of sexual assault.
Alves, a right-back who represented Brazil on two occasions at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, was detained on Friday after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her on December 30 in a bar in Barcelona.
Alves appeared in front of a judge later on Friday and was remanded without bail despite his denial of the charge.
The player had a deal with Pumas through July 2023, having previously played for Barcelona, PSG, and Juventus.
