Barcelona fullback Dani Alves sends 'fame' warning to Ansu Fati

Barcelona fullback Dani Alves has a warning for young teammate Ansu Fati.

Fati is set to make a playing return from long-term injury this month.

Alves said: “Ansu was born to score goals. From afar, he reminds me of Samuel Eto'o.

"He's a machine who can destroy defences. I think he can mark the next era too, a special history at Barcelona. It will depend, like the other youngsters, if he takes the right road and optimises his qualities. Fame is the biggest distraction there is in life.

"You have to be able to control it."
