Dani Alves has said Josep Maria Bartomeu was lying after the Barcelona president claimed the right-back left the Catalan club for personal reasons.

Alves, 34, joined Juventus on a free transfer from Barca last summer and has since insinuated he moved on because of a conflict with Bartomeu and his board.

Bartomeu contradicted that claim last week, though, suggesting in an interview with Diario Sport that the Brazil international actually left because of a personal matter.

However, sharing an article relating to Bartomeu's comments on Twitter, Alves said the claim was a "lie."
