Dani Alves: ‘At Barcelona we are taking football back to its origins’
Dani Alves sits behind a large desk in his office in Sant Just Desvern, a small town near Barcelona, wearing a shirt, tie and jacket. behind him, a cabinet containing countless football shirts, folded neatly, photographs and trophies.

Through the glass to his left, reception: a leather sofa, the morning’s papers, a television showcasing danialves.com and replaying highlights from the 2011 European Cup final — “the best moment of my career,” he says. the only thing missing is a box of business cards. But what would they say? “Daniel Alves da Silva, right-back”?
