Former Barcelona defender, Dani Alves, could face up to 12 years in prison for an alleged sexual assault in a Spanish nightclub.
Â
His trial is expected to be held between October and November.
Â
Alves has been in custody since January 20, following allegations of sexual assault by a 23-year-old woman at a nightclub.
Â
Alves has denied the allegations, but his requests to be released on bail have been rejected, and he remains in custody at Brians 2.
Â
He could face up to 12 years in prison if found guilty.
Â
The high court in Barcelona rejected the most recent appeal made by Alves to be released from remand.
Â
According to Marca, there are concerns that Alves might flee the country if released, possibly to his home country of Brazil, which does not extradite its citizens.
