Dani Alves has confirmed that he is leaving Paris Saint-Germain after two seasons in the French capital.
The veteran right-back made the announcement on Instagram hours after his Brazil side demolished Peru 5-0 to advance to the quarter-finals of the Copa America as winners of their group.
The news means that the 36-year-old is now available on a free transfer, with Premier League champions Manchester City among the sides thought to be interested in taking him on a short-term deal.
"Another cycle in my life ends today, a victorious cycle, one of learning and experiences," Alves wrote. "I would like to thank the PSG family for the opportunity we had together to build a page in the club's history. I would like to thank all the staff for their affection, respect and complicity from day one... you make this club a little more special.
"It was two years of resilience and continuous reinventing to fulfil my mission but in life everything has a beginning, a middle and an end and now the time has come to make that final point. I apologise if at any point I was not up to it on the pitch and I apologise if at some points I made mistakes, I just tried to give my best. Thanks to all my companions for the moments we lived, the laughter together and the boredom that your lazy spirits put me through.
"If you ever remember me, be like the 'Good Crazy' of each day, with a beautiful smile on your face, with a pure energy of soul, as a professional worker and committed to the goals, as someone who just wanted to make each day better."
During his two seasons at PSG, Alves won back-to-back Ligue 1 titles as well as the French Cup and French League Cup.
Alves spent the majority of his playing career with Barcelona, where he won six La Liga titles, three Champions Leagues and four Copas del Rey, while he also holds a Serie A title from his time with Juventus in 2016-17.
