Juventus confirmed Dani Alves' departure from the club by mutual consent on Thursday, clearing the way for the right-back's reported move to Manchester City.
Beppe Marotta, Juventus' chief executive, had already said last week that Alves would be released from his current contract, despite having one more year remaining on a two-year deal with the Italian champions.
That move followed ESPN FC sources confirming that Manchester City wanted to bring in Alves to be reunited with coach Pep Guardiola, for whom the Brazilian won three La Liga titles and the Champions League twice at Barcelona.
