Barcelona coach Xavi is "shocked" over Dani Alves's arrest on sexual assault allegations.
Alves, in prison without bail, has also been sacked by his club Pumas.
"It is hard to speak about a situation like this, first of all," Xavi said.
"I think like everybody, I am surprised, taken aback, I am in a state of shock, knowing Dani.
"That's the first thing that comes to mind. And after that, because it's a matter for the law, and the law will run its course, we cannot get into it.
"Regarding Dani, I feel bad for him, I am surprised, given how Dani is, and how he has been when he was here with us.
"(I'm) surprised, taken aback, I can't say anything else."
