“It’s a pleasure to be here,” Alves told Sky at the Gran Gala del Calcio, where he was named in the team of the season.
“I had a good year with Juve and it’s always nice to see them again. I’d already spoken to my former teammates about why I left: I left Juve because I think Italian football has to improve.
“I wanted to do more but it wasn’t easy for me, I wasn’t as happy as I always am.
“Now I’m happy at PSG because my life has taught me that in football you have to do as well as possible and there I’m free to do it, which makes me happy.
“I expect Italian football to change in general, also because of what happened with the national team. It’s not just a problem with the Coach, but the football in general because the level has lowered.
“Everyone should take an example from Napoli, I really like them and the vision that Napoli have is useful for improving Calcio.
“You need more fun than there is in modern calcio.”
