Former Brazilian national football team star Dani Alves, who was sentenced to four and a half years in prison last February on charges of rape, returned the amount of 150,000 euros (regarding 161,000 dollars) that the father of his former teammate Neymar lent him to pay for his defense, according to what his lawyer announced on Wednesday.

Ines Guardiola said in a letter to Agence France-Presse: “Dani Alves returned the sum of 150,000 euros to (Neymar’s father) a week ago,” without revealing the reasons for returning the sum.

Neymar’s father, a current Saudi Al Hilal player, former Paris Saint-Germain and Spanish Barcelona player, announced in January that he had helped Alves – who was not convicted at the time – financially, a move that was widely condemned in Brazil.

The father of Alves’s former teammate in the French and Spanish clubs and the national team denied in March, a month following the conviction, that he, his son, or his family would pay the bail that a Barcelona court approved, amounting to one million euros ($1.08 million), for his temporary release while his appeal is considered. .

Alves (40 years old), one of the most decorated players in the world, was sentenced for raping a young woman in the bathroom of a nightclub in Barcelona in the early hours of December 31, 2022.

He was released on March 25 from Brians 2 prison, 40 km northwest of Barcelona, ​​where he was detained, five days following the court approved his temporary release, following collecting the bail amount.

On Wednesday, a Spanish court rejected the appeals submitted by the prosecution team once morest the decision to release the player.
