Press: "Barcelona" will sell Alves without renewing his contract © EuroFootball.com

Stuck in negotiations for contract extension, defender Dani Alves is allowed to look for a new club, as reported by the Spanish press.

According to AS, the country's champions hope to earn by selling the Brazilian in January when the transfer window opens, as they are not willing to meet his very high financial demands in a new contract.

Alves rejected the offer to extend his contract, which expires in the summer of 2012.

In 2008, "Barcelona" paid 32 million euros for him.
