After a few years of going around, I didn't expect that the best player on the right side of Barca is still Alves, although he is getting older and can't play the whole game, but his consciousness is clear, the ability to read the game is absolutely second to none, and coming to Barca is actually complementary, Barça can use Alves's ability to bring new people, or have enough time to find more right-hand talent, and Alves can also use Barca's good platform to maintain their status.
In order to ensure physical strength and form, Alves even signed barca for a salary of 1 euro, although rumors are so, but it is certain that Alves' salary should be pitifully low. But Alves has not had too many ideas about the demand for money, only a dream, that is, to use this time to keep his body in the high-level league competitive state, so that he can be expected to follow the national team to the Qatar World Cup.
Considering that the World Cup takes place at the end of the year, and after the end of the season, the contracts of Alves and Barca will also expire, this period of time is painful for Alves. Whether it can be renewed also requires comprehensive consideration by the club. There is only one factor at the moment, and that is whether Alves can still help Barca, after all, money really can't be considered.
For Alves, Xavi, indeed like his brothers, has also said in public that he hopes that the club and Alves can renew their contract for a year, so that Alves can participate in the World Cup in excellent condition, and when the World Cup returns, Alves can also do his best to help Barca, and the attitude is definitely not a problem.
But whether the team wants to renew the contract with Alves, it also needs Laporta to nod and agree, with the lessons of the past, in fact, Alves is also a little afraid, in a recent interview, the words are in support of Messi, satirizing Laporta. Because Alves didn't want that to happen a second time.
Alves: "At the end of the season, they'll tell me whether to go or stay. I will leave no regrets, I am already a veteran, and the most important thing is to maintain transparency. If they come face-to-face and tell me I can't stay, that's no problem. ”
This passage has been very obvious, when Laporta could not renew the contract with Messi, played Messi a surprise, Laporta has always said that in the renewal of Messi's efforts, in fact, it is basically delayed to the end, so that the five major league teams simply do not have time to react, and Messi did not discuss the contract with Laporta in time, so that Laporta took advantage of the loophole.
Alves and Messi are very good friends, although many things can not be pointed out in person, but Alves is very aware of what happened to Messi in the beginning, so when he renews his contract, Alves definitely does not want the second time the same thing happens.
Therefore, whether Alves and Barca are renewed or not, there is only one requirement, that is, to maintain transparency, there is no need to hide it, the renewal is a renewal, and if alves does not renew, it will not be left. He is perfectly capable of playing for any team, even a substitute, and can guarantee the status to play in the World Cup. But Alves's concern is the same as Messi's departure at the time, that is, leaving too little time for himself to choose, which will make Alves miss the signing and thus risk missing the last World Cup.
summary
The Qatar World Cup is very important for Alves, because this is likely to be his last, so if he can stay in Barca and continue to maintain his form, then he may get the call of the national team, if he can't stay at Barca, Alves will choose to leave at the first time, because there is not much time left for Alves after all, Alves as a veteran, there are not many teams to choose from, or there are not many teams to choose him. So Barca's transparency will give Alves more time to choose.
