The Thrower
A 26-year-old man, David Campayo Lleo, was arrested and accused of racially insulting the Brazil international, and faces from one to three years in prison if found guilty. He has also been banned by Villarreal from attending home matches for life. Furthermore, many people have posted pictures of them eating bananas to show respect to Dani Alves and against racism.
Dani Alves- The Banana Man
A 26-year-old Villarreal fan has been arrested after a banana was thrown at Dani Alves in what appeared to be a racist incident.
David Campayo Lleo, the man who threw the banana at Alves, was charged by Spanish police for 'a crime against the fundamental rights and public freedoms.'
During Barcelona's La Liga clash at El Madrigal, Alves was subject to racist taunts from the home crowd, but decided to eat the fruit in response as his side won 3-2.
