Egyptian team want to sign Dani Alves and talk to Messi

The newly-promoted Pharco FC has lofty ambitions, according to the club's owner

Shreen Helmy, the owner of newly-promoted Egyptian side Pharco FC, says that he would like to bring Dani Alves to the club while also admitting his hopes of working alongside Lionel Messi on a charity initiative.

Pharco FC won their 16-team group to earn automatic promotion to Egypt's top flight, and the club already has ambitions of bringing in a Brazilian star.

Alves is currently with his boyhood club Sao Paulo, having joined in 2019, but Helmy says the Egyptian side has legitimate hope of bringing one of the best full-backs of all time to the club.
