Dani Alves will miss out on footballing action for approximately 10-15 days after getting injured in the match against Malaga. Dani Alves has suffered a small tear in his right calf that would keep him out for up to a fortnight. Alves will undergo further tests this Monday, but if he misses the full 15 days, he will be unavailable for the La Liga games against Racing and Hercules and the second leg of the Betis game in the Cup, as well as the first leg of the semis if the team get through. None of those game actually terrifies us. So this becomes a very good time for Alves to get injured and get some rest. He has been playing non-stop since the start of the season and a small break should be good for season ahead. Adriano would be a decent replacement. The only problem for Adriano is that he has majorly played as a left back throughout this season. But then matches against Hercules, Real Betis and a possible clash against Almeria or Deportivo could be the perfect occasion for Adriano to make his claim for that position.
