Xavi hails Man City target Dani Alves as 'best right-back in the world'

The Brazilian has been released from his contract by Juventus and is being tipped to spend many more years at the very highest level

Dani Alves has seen Juventus clear the path for him to join Manchester City, and Xavi considers him to still be “the best right-back in the world”.

Having spent many years playing alongside the Brazilian during their time at Barcelona, the World Cup winner knows all about the 34-year-old’s talent.

Xavi sees no reason why Alves cannot spend “more years” at the very highest level, as he closes on a move to England.
