Dani Alves has slammed his
former side Barcelona for their 'false and ungrateful' attitude towards
him, claiming it was the reason why he ultimately decided to depart for
Juventus.
The Brazilian was able to
bring an eight-year spell at the Nou Camp to an end last summer after
activating a peculiar termination clause in his contract.
Months
of speculation meant it came as little surprise to the press but,
considering their troubles at right-back this season, Barcelona were
evidently not prepared.
Alves, 33, says the La Liga champions only
have themselves to blame with regards to his exit, claiming the
hierarchy have 'no idea' how to treat their players properly.
The defender told ABC:
'During my last three seasons I always heard that "Alves was leaving",
but the managers never said anything to me. They were very false and
ungrateful. They did not respect me.
'I
was only offered to renew when the FIFA transfer ban came in. That was
when I went and signed a deal with a termination clause.
'Those who run Barcelona today have no idea how to treat their players.'
