Sevilla president raps Real Madrid for unsettling Alves

Sevilla president Jose Maria del Nido has warned Real Madrid off Daniel Alves.

Del Nido believes their interest in the Brazilian could unsettle the club, which is battling Barcelona for the Primera Liga championship.

He said: "Alves has a price: his buyout clause. I hope that the Madrid press do not destabilise our group because Madrid is not in the Liga race and Sevilla are."

"Alves has a seven-year contract and nothing can destabilise us, I'll make sure of that."

"I prefer to talk about the Madrid players that interest Sevilla. It would please us not to sell any of our stars."
