D. Alves criticized the decision of former colleagues: they should have been here

Former "Barcelona" defender Dani Alves was unpleasantly surprised when he heard about the decision of the Catalan team players to ignore the FIFA awards ceremony.

Four of Luis Enrique's disciples were among the best footballers in the world last year (Neymar, G. Pique, A. Iniesta, and L. Messi), but nevertheless they decided to skip the celebration.

"They should have come, that's my opinion. The 'Barcelona' players will be more than ready for Wednesday's match.

Of course, we need to respect such a decision, but they shouldn't have ignored the celebration. I saw a lot of 'white' players ('Real' players) here, so I felt bad," said the Brazilian defending the colors of "Juventus."

Let's remind that the "Barcelona" team only sent the club's staff representatives to the FIFA ceremony, and the players' absence was motivated by the upcoming match against the Bilbao team.
