The antics of Dani Alves continue to confuse Juve, with the player's statements about Paulo Dybala leaving the Bianconeri having divided the Juventus fans. Then, there was also a video message of another Argentine teammate Gonzalo Higuain towards the former Barcelona defender:

"Dani brother, what can I tell you? I send you a big thank you, you know how much I love you. It was a pleasure to play with you and to win with you. I wish you the best and I hope we will spend more time together because it is really a pleasure. Hi genius, always keep with your cheer and smile, that is what matters most to this Life. Smile and be happy, a hug."

Some are already speculating that these are not words of a simple summer goodbye, but rather a sentimental farewell. Dani Alves has been on and off the radar of both City and Chelsea recently, in addition to a big money move to China. For the Bianconeri, they will want evaluate any alternatives should the Brazilian choose to hand in a transfer request. Is it all rumors and stories, or is there some truth between the lines? Only time will tell.
