DANI ALVES BIOGRAPHY
Daniel Alves da Silva born 6 May 1983 in Juazeiro, commonly known as Dani Alves, is a Brazilian footballer. He plays as an attacking right defender for FC Barcelona and the Brazilian national team. Before joining Barcelona, Alves spent a successful six year spell with Sevilla FC, winning two UEFA Cups and the Copa del Rey with the Andalusian side. He joined Barcelona for €29 million plus add-ons of €6 million, and won the Treble in his first season with the club. Alves has held a Spanish passport since 2005
Alves made his Brazil debut as a substitute in an unofficial friendly match against Kuwait club Al-Kuwait Selection on 7 October 2006. Three days later, he earned his first international cap in a friendly against Ecuador. He was included in Brazil's team for the 2007 Copa América. He appeared in four matches including the final against Argentina, where he gave an assist and scored a goal in a 3–0 victory. Despite being the most expensive right-back in history, he has been unable to hold down a regular starting spot in the national team with Maicon being the first choice ahead of him. Alves came on as a substitute in the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup semi-final against South Africa and scored the winner, a free-kick and a traditional Brazilian full back goal in the style of Roberto Carlos in the 88th minute in a 1–0 win. He scored another long range free-kick against Iran on 7 October 2010.
