Dani Alves to join Man Utd next summer

Brazilian defender Dani Alves has reportedly agreed to join Manchester United when his contract expires at Barcelona at the end of the season.

The talented defender had recently suggested that he could end his six-year tenure with the Catalan giants next summer, having yet to sign a new deal at the club.

According to FIFA agent Francois Gallardo, the full-back has agreed on a deal in principle to join the Reds Devils after the expiration of his contract at Camp Nou next summer.

"The player will leave Barcelona next season. He has signed a preliminary agreement with Manchester United." He said.

Alves has made 304 appearances for Barca since joining them from Sevilla in the summer of 2008.
