Brazilian soccer player Dani Alves was arrested in Barcelona on Friday and is being held on sexual abuse charges after a woman said that Alves sexually assaulted her at a nightclub last month, according to ESPN.
Alves was taken into custody and transferred to a court in Barcelona after he returned to Spain from Mexico this week to give a statement to local police.
