Manchester City-bound? Dani Alves confirms Juventus exit but insists he is not moving for the money

Brazilian defender Dani Alves insists he is not leaving Juventus for a more lucrative contract elsewhere as he confirmed his departure in an emotional goodbye note to the club's fans.

Alves is being heavily linked with a move to Manchester City and a reunion with manager Pep Guardiola, who coached the full-back when the pair were at Barcelona.

But, according to the full-back, the riches on offer at the Etihad Stadium or anywhere else is not a motivating factor in his decision to exit Turin 12 months into an initial two-year deal.
