Football: Alves set to leave Barcelona
32-year-old Brazilian veteran right-back says will decide his future after Champions League final on June 6

MADRID
Barcelona's Brazilian right-back Dani Alves is set to leave his club after refusing to renew his deal.
The 32-year-old veteran said in a press conference on Monday that he will decide his future after the UEFA Champions League final against Juventus on June 6 in Berlin.
Spanish media claim that Paris Saint-Germain are interested in the Brazilian star.
"I always said that I wanted to stay at Barcelona. But I did not say 'at any cost', it's not only the money. I believe that I am a professional," Alves said.
"It's very hard to stay at Barcelona; I have been negotiating with the club for a year. The club did not want to renew my contract at first and I felt worthless.”
The Brazilian also said that the upcoming game against Juventus would prove to be a tough one.
“The match against Juventus will be very difficult and we have to be careful. Juventus eliminated the latest Champions League winners. They have big players and they are very industrious," Alves said.
“Barca" veteran has been playing for the Catalan club since 2008. He scored 20 goals and produced 93 assists in 341 matches.
