Former Brazil and Barcelona footballer Dani Alves has been sentenced to four and a half years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman at a Barcelona nightclub. The victim reported that Alves raped her in a bathroom, leading to his arrest and detention since January 2023. Alves denied wrongdoing during the trial, initially claiming no sexual contact but later admitting to consensual relations. The court ordered him to pay 150,000 euros to the victim. Alves\' defence emphasized his intoxicated state during the incident.
