Dani Alves bail of 150 thousand euros, but for now he remains in prison
Dani Alves will be heard by the judge on August 3: then it will be up to the Court of Barcelona to set the start of the trial, which should probably start between the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, one year from when the footballer (42 titles won in career including 3 Champions League) entered prison.
According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, the magistrate who is handling his case has set a bail of 150 thousand euros, but for now the former footballer remains in prison because the Court believes that there is a real danger of escape.
