The Brazilian full-back wants to stay at the club at least until after the World Cup but does not know if he will be offered an extension
Dani Alves says he is not sure if Barcelona will grant his wish for a contract extension.
The Brazilian full-back signed a short-term deal to return to Camp Nou late last year but his contract will expire this summer.
GOAL reported last week that the 39-year-old has told the club that he wants to extend his stay until at least the end of 2022 as he targets a place in Brazil's squad for the World Cup in Qatar.
What has Dani Alves said about his future?
"I don't know if it will be my last game," he said to reporters following Barca's 2-0 loss at home against Villarreal in the final La Liga game of the season.
"I live in the present, I don't think about the future.
"My desire is to continue because I can keep helping the club, but it does not depend on me.
"I have aspirations and will keep fighting."
How has Dani Alves performed this season?
The ex-Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain man has featured 17 times in all competitions for the Catalan side this summer.
He has chipped in with a goal and three assists to help Barca recover from a difficult start to the season and secure a second-place finish.
Asked for his analysis of his team's campaign, he said: "We have to put in more enthusiasm because we're representing these colours and a rich history. We cannot reach the end of the year without aspirations.
"We are very demanding. We have to go for more always. It's been an unstable season. Some good moments and not-so-good moments.
"We have to hold on to the good ones and not repeat the bad ones. That's the reflection we have to do."

Alves plays for 1 dollar. If this isn't a true loyal Barça player, I don't know who is. In fact, no one in all of football loves his club as much as Dani Alves loves Barça

You know what the PROBLEM IS with these OLD Players like ALVES, PIQUE, BUSQUETS, ROBERTO and JORDI ALBA. They still think they’re young ‼️😒 they’re SOO SELFISH . Why can’t they stay and TEACH THE YOUNG ONES HOW TO BECOME BETTER instead of STARTING EVERY GOD Damnn MANTCH ‼️😒😒😒 Alves needs to Train Dest, and so on .... i hope if Kessi comes that Busquets teaches him but I DOUBT THAT , Busquets will start every match. And don’t tell me it’s the Coach his job to teach them or it’s the coach that selects the lineup . Well for me THEYRE OLD ENOUGH to tell each other well we can help you off the pitch afterall all these players played with Xavi. But FAVORITISM KILLS THIS CLUB 😔😔😔

Is teaching football same as teaching a school subject ?
It depends on how you look at it . Cause someone with a LOW IQ can’t do well in school . Same with Football .someone with NO TALENT cant do much. But someone with Talent can still learn how to use his footballing abilities 😉

Bro go and rest, your positioning and pace cost us the second goal last match.. apart from your leadership, composure, crossing ability, vision, you got nothing to offer again. I respect you legend but its time for you to move to a smaller team.. next season is gonna be a war and i dont think with your age you can cope with the intensity.. we love you Alves 💗
