I have argued for Alves for years and dont think the position people are is to let him go other than if his wage demands and contract length is unreasonable.
There will always be replacements for players and plenty of names have been given on here.
I know. Montoya's name came up many times. Until Canales erased him from the candidates list for good. Finding a replacement for Alves is almost an impossible task right now. If you buy a player now, you have to integrate him step by step. It takes time. You can't buy a player in the winter of 2016 and expect him to perform amazing 2 months after, in the CL last 16 for example.
