Paris Saint-Germain defender Dani Alves has apologised on Twitter for comments he made about the death of Fiorentina captain Davide Astori.
Astori tragically passed away in his hotel last Sunday, as his side prepared for their Serie A trip to Udinese. The Fiorentina captain suffered a heart attack, and all Serie A games that day were postponed as a mark of respect for the 31-year-old.
Speaking at a press conference ahead of PSG's Champions League tie against Real Madrid, Alves said: “We weren’t too troubled because we didn’t know him very well. I’m sorry for his family.
