Dani Alves' time at Juventus may have come to an end, but it looks as though the Brazilian full-back has found himself another Champions League club to keep him occupied for next season.
And it could mean the four time Champions League winner finally makes his way to the Premier League.
Alves' future was accidentally revealed by Gonzalo Higuain, or so it seemed, after the Argentine striker posted a goodbye message to the former Barcelona defender, before swiftly deleting it, possibly because the news was not meant to be made public knowledge just yet.

Despite the Juventus striker deleting the post, it does appear that Alves is indeed set to leave Turin after spending a season with the Italian champions, lifting a domestic double and reaching the Champions League final in the process.

And, according to Mundo Deportivo in Spain, the Brazilian could be set for a reunion with his former Barcelona manager, Pep Guardiola, at Manchester City.
Alves spent four years under Guardiola at the Camp Nou between 2008 and 2012, lifting three La Liga titles, two Champions Leagues, two Copa Del Reys and two FIFA Club World Cups.

City are currently in the market for a right-back, with Pablo Zabaleta, Gael Clichy and Bacary Sagna all being released by the club so far, this summer.
Given the form Alves displayed at Juventus last season, it's clear the former Barca man hasn't lost a step and could add some much needed experience to City's backline while also providing further support to Pep Guardiola's mouthwatering attack, which has been further bolstered by the signing of Bernardo Silva, from Monaco, last month.
City fans, would you be happy with Dani Alves arriving at the Etihad stadium or would you prefer a younger option who could offer more longevity?
