Alves: 'No pre-contract in place'

Barcelona full-back Dani Alves has insisted that he does not have a pre-contract agreement in place with any club ahead of an uncertain summer.

The Brazilian's agent suggested earlier this week that his client was set to leave the Camp Nou on a free transfer at the end of the season after contract talks broke down.

However, Alves, who is rumoured to be a target for Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, claims that he has not discussed terms with another club and refuses to rule out the possibility of signing a new deal with Barcelona.

"I am very happy at Barcelona and I have not signed with anyone," the 31-year-old told BeIn Sports.

"In life, you have to be thankful. Barca are a club that changed my life, made me realise all my dreams. I'll get to the end of my contract with the same ambition as when I came here.

"If the club asks me to look for another alternative, then I'll look at the other options. But for now, this is not the case. I stay focused on the end of the season because I'm still a competitor. A decision will be made at the end of the season."

Alves played 90 minutes as Barcelona slipped to a 2-2 draw against Sevilla on Saturday evening.
