Juventus signing Daniel Alves has explained why he chose to leave Barcelona.
Alves was presented to the local media yesterday.
“There was no exact moment when I took the decision. Barça are a team with an incredible history. I considered myself privileged to have formed part of that. But all stories have an end and each person must decide when that it is. I wanted to write my own history. I wanted to be the person that decided when my era with Barça came to an end," he said, aware that his form in recent seasons had been questioned and that the club had looked for replacements.
According to Alves, signing for Juventus provides him with a new personal challenge.
“I have come with the excitement of being able to reinvent myself, I don't always want to do the same thing. I'm grateful to Juve for giving me the opportunity to experience this - we're going to have fun," he added.
