DANI ALVES has an agreement with Manchester United that will see him move to England at the end of the season.
Alves is in the final year of his deal at Barcelona and has not been offered fresh terms at the Camp Nou.
The player’s agent said this week that they would consider all options before making a decision in December or January.
But FIFA agent Francois Gallardo claims that a deal has already been agreed that will see Alves move to Old Trafford.
Speaking to Spanish television show Neox, Gallardo said: “The player will leave Barcelona next season. He has signed a preliminary agreement with Manchester United.”
The news is sure to come as a blow to both Chelsea and Liverpool who both had hopes of signing the Brazilian on a free transfer.
Earlier this week, Alves’ agent Dinorah Santana said: “If the club [Barcelona] wanted to renew Alves they would have done it already. I would not do things they way they have.
“We will leave the suitors until December or January… then we’ll decide who to marry.”
