I leave Barca with courage! Dani Alves drops HUGE hint he will join Manchester United
DANI ALVES says he will depart Barcelona with "courage" if he is not offered a new contract in the summer.
Dani Alves is set to leave Barcelona come July
Alves is being closely tracked by Manchester United, who are keen to land the right-back on a cut-price fee or free transfer come July.
United have reportedly already discussed a £100,000-a-week, three-year contract with the Brazilian but no deal was confirmed last month.
And with Barcelona eyeing up Liverpool target Danilo - who is set to leave Porto for around £37million next summer - United have the green light to land Alves.
On his instagram account the player, 31, conceded he will likely be leaving his Barca team-mates come July.
Pictured alongside compatriots Adriano, Rafinha, Douglas and Neymar, he wrote: “Family of Brazil, my pride, to be part of this quintet does me good. If I have to go, it will be with courage, with a nice smile and with happiness in my heart.”
