Alves, who spent 15 months behind bars awaiting trial, found himself embroiled in controversy once more as he indulged in celebrations at his Esplugues de Llobregat residence.
Despite facing a four-and-a-half-year prison sentence for the alleged rape of a woman in December 2022, Alves remains resolute in his appeal against the verdict.
"At night they came to this house when there were almost no journalists left and they also celebrated it with Daniel Alves," said a journalist in 'Así es la vida'.
