Juventus sign Dani Alves

The Brazilian right-back is joining the Italian champions after eight years with Barcelona, where he won La Liga six times and the Champions League thrice.

Joining Stephan Lichtsteiner on the right flank, he provides the Old Lady with considerable quality and depth in that position.

Alves completed his visits at the J-Medical centre this morning, and went on to sign his new contract shortly thereafter, as confirmed by the club in an official statement.

The contract runs to June 30 2018, with an option to extend for a further year.

It's thought the full-back will earn around €3.5m per season, with performance-related bonuses on top.

Alves becomes the Bianconeri’s second official signing of the summer, following the capture of Miralem Pjanic from Roma.
