FC Barcelona v Villanovense - Copa Del Rey
Dani Alves won 23 trophies at Barcelona.

With 39 major trophies, Dani Alves is the most decorated footballer on Earth as of today. A large chunk of these came during his eight-year spell at Barcelona, where he won anything and everything that was up for grab.

Dani Alves was already a La Liga veteran by the time Barcelona signed him in 2008. He readily fit into Pep Guardiola's tiki-taka based playing style, making 54 appearances during their treble-winning 2008-09 campaign.

A big reason for Alves' success at Barcelona was his instant bonding with Lionel Messi. Their close relationship both on and off the pitch was visible during their inter-plays on the flank. The attack-oriented fullback assisted 42 of Messi's goals, more than any other Barcelona player.

Dani Alves went on to play close to 400 matches for the Catalonians, winning 23 major trophies. Individual honours kept pouring in too, as Alves regularly made it to various 'Team of the Year' lists.

Alves' growing discomfort with the Barcelona board resulted in him to join Juventus in 2016. Fast forward two years, he still going strong at the age of 35 while Barcelona is yet to find someone of his competence. Alves, undoubtedly, is their all-time greatest right-back.
