Dani Alves was told he would be ‘killed’ in Brazil by a furious heckler on Thursday – after walking free from prison having paid an £850,000 bail bond.
The former Barcelona player was released from Brians 2 prison on Monday after 15 months spent behind bars awaiting his trial for raping a woman in December 2022.
Alves, 40, was found guilty in February this year and sentenced to four-and-a-half years in prison but he is in the process of appealing the verdict.
He will do so from his own home after agreeing to a number of conditions handed out by the court.
Angry members of the public vented at Alves as he sauntered through the Barcelona streets after a court hearing on Thursday, as captured by Marca.

‘In Brazil they would kill you fast, don’t freak out,’ one shouted, as translated by Football Espana.
‘Alves, you have a lot of money to rape, don’t you?’ shouted another.
The former Brazil defender is on provisional release and will usually attend court hearings on Friday.
He is understood to have complied with the other orders of the three judges who said he could leave jail despite his recent rape conviction by handing in his Spanish and Brazilian passports.
Keen to make the most of his life outside prison walls, he was reported to have celebrated one of his first nights of freedom with a lavish party.
As per Spanish TV program ‘This is Life’, the day after Alves was released he hosted his family and friends at his house in Esplugues de Llobregat after they had attended a dinner party in Barcelona in honour of patriarch Domingos Alves Da Silva without him.
After dinner, the party made their way to Alves’ £4.5m villa, with festivities thought to continue until five o’clock in the morning.
Alves was told he could leave prison last Wednesday after winning his bid to appeal his jail sentence from the comfort of his own home rather than a cell.

But his failure to get together the bail bond meant he remained behind bars over the weekend.
Alves’ lawyer Ines Guardiola has said the Brazilian has two bank accounts in Spain, one with no balance and the other with €51,000 (£44,000), with a judicial seizure of €50,000 (£43,000).
Guardiola claimed last year that her client ‘is broke’ and has a ‘negative bank balance of £17,000’, despite reportedly once having a fortune of £47million.
Sport reported that Alves’ accounts in Brazil have also been blocked due to problems with his ex-wife Dinorah Santana.
Alves, however, is expected to receive €9.2 million (£7.9 million) after his tax lawyer Fernando Mota won four cases against Spain’s tax agency.

The hearing to determine Alves’ bail had noted the 40-year-old was set to receive ‘a large sum of money’ back from the treasury, but he has not yet received the funds.
Brazilian teammate Neymar’s dad had been expected to help Alves pay the money to secure his freedom, but he issued a statement denying he would hand over any cash after coming under political pressure in his homeland.
