Dani Alves 'set for transfer after agreeing to join Pumas for free' following Barcelona exit | The Sun

BARCELONA legend Dani Alves will join Mexican club Pumas on a free transfer, according to reports.

The legendary right-back, who has won 43 titles across his career, left Barca this summer following a short return to the club.

Alves re-joined Barca after a spell in Brazil, helping out former team-mate Xavi, who took over the reigns at the cash-strapped Catalan club.

The 38-year-old played on a ONE EURO-A-MONTH contract but featured just 15 times across all competitions.

Alves' best performance back in Barca's famous colours came against then defending LaLiga champions Atletico Madrid.

The full-back scored and assisted in the 4-2 win but also received a red card.

But it wasn't enough to secure a new contract and according to Diario Record, Alves has agreed to join Mexican club Pumas.

Alves has already agreed to the move and all that is left is passing a medical and signing on the dotted line.

Despite not staying at the Camp Nou, Alves says he has a "big book of golden stories" to take with him.

On his Barca exit, Alves said: "It's been 23 titles, two trebles, a sextuple, and a big book of golden stories!"

He added: "It's been more than eight years dedicated to this Club, these colours, and this home.
