Now, Liga MX is under the spotlight as Brazilian superstar, Dani Alves, will suit up as a player for Pumas UNAM for this season. There are some questions surrounding this movement, but the most important is: when will he make his debut?
Pumas is one of the biggest clubs in Mexico regarding titles, history and fanbase. They are trying to return to the titles talk as they have not won a Liga MX championship in 11 years. That’s why the institution went for all their transfer targets and they signed huge names such as Gustavo del Prete, Eduardo Salvio and now Dani Alves.
As for Dani Alves, he just left Barcelona, but not in the best way possible. He was not happy with how the institution treated him and also fired back to Xavi, the team’s coach and his former teammate. In spite of that, he is willing to win some titles with his new squad and become another Brazilian legend for the club.
