Dani Alves may return to football with his own team. The former Barcelona player is close to completing a deal to buy the team in Portugal’s third tier with a group of investors backing him.
Specifically, negotiations with Sao Joao de Ver, who are ranked 10th in Portugal’s third division Serie A, are nearing completion, and the Brazilian player may end his playing career with the same team.

In fact, he retired on judicial grounds just a few years ago and is considering the possibility of playing six months with the team, several years after ending up in prison. Alves made headlines again a few days ago when his new life as a preacher became known.
This aspect now characterizes his way of life and he is always proud of it. “You’ve got to have faith. I’m proof of that,” he has said multiple times in recent weeks.
According to information reported by ESPN Brazil, Alves is determined to return to active duty at the age of 42 and wants to get fit enough to play football with his team. It must be remembered that Alves stopped playing in January 2023 when he was accused of sexual assault and went on trial in Spain.
After being acquitted by a Spanish court in March last year, the Brazilian wants to say goodbye to football at another level, but is keen to get the feel of boots and grass again.
