TURIN, Italy (Reuters) - After an injury-interrupted start at Juventus, Dani Alves has rediscovered the form which helped him win 23 trophies over eight seasons with Barcelona and made him one of their most influential players.

The exuberant Brazilian is now enjoying a second wind at his new club and gave an inspired performance in Juventus's 2-1 win over AS Monaco on Tuesday which must have left Barcelona wondering why they let him go in the first place.
