Barcelona club president Josep Maria Bartomeu has insisted that Dani Alves wants to stay at the Camp Nou, despite yet agreeing to a new deal.
The Brazilian's agent Dinorah Santana revealed last month that the full-back has rejected an offer from the Spanish giants.
Alves's representative suggested that her client will look elsewhere by claiming that Barcelona were not going to put forward a fresh offer, but Bartomeu has stated otherwise.
"He is an important player who contributes a lot," BBC Sport quotes Bartomeu as saying. "I hope he renews. We have asked him to and we're discussing it. I know he'd like to stay and Barca want him to stay."
The 31-year-old, who has been linked with Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United, will come to the end of his current terms this summer.
