Dani Alves confirms forthcoming Juventus move

Dani Alves has confirmed his imminent move to Juventus and is determined to guide the Serie A champions to success in the Champions League.

Rumours were running rife the last week of the defenders exit from the Camp Nou, and on Thursday the club confirmed his departure. 

Despite reported interest from French giants PSG, Alves looked set to join the Italian giants, and he has now confirmed his intentions. 

"I am always happy, but I am even happier now. I am very happy to join Juventus," the Brazil international told Sportitalia.

"I want to win in Europe and in Italy.

"I have won a lot of trophies with Barcelona, but the time has come to enjoy Italy and to try to bring Juventus back to the European top."

However, the player sees himself returning to the Catalan side in the future, where he has had a great deal of success.

"But it is more of a see you later than a farewell with Barcelona," he added.

"Sooner or later I will return to Barcelona. I am still a fan of Barca."
