Daniel Alves da Silva was born on May 6, 1983 in a Brazilian town called Joiseiro in the family of a housewife and a farmer. Like most of the citizens of their home country, they lived in poverty.

Due to the lack of financial resources, the boy had to work with his father. From the age of four, he helped Alves Sr. to manage the farm in the Salitra fields. The guy was lucky: his father loved football so much that one day he decided to try his luck and organized his own team. She brought together several ten-year-old players.

Dani started in his father's team and initially acted as a winger. The mentor, on the other hand, decided that it was better to direct his son's potential in a different direction, and provided him with the opportunity to develop as a protector. Young Dani sold agricultural products to earn money for the essentials, and spent his free time in training.

January 1, 2005 was marked by an important event for the young footballer: Dinora Santana entered his life. In 2008, the girl officially became the wife of an athlete. In the union, two children were born, Daniel and Vitoria. The couple's personal life did not work out, and after 3 years the divorce took place. The spouses do not cover the reason for the separation, but there were rumors that Alves was suspected of infidelity.

Despite the discord in the family, Dinore and Dani managed to maintain friendly relations for the sake of the children. The woman continued to work as an agent of her ex-spouse and in every possible way supported the football player in career matters. She even took care of the athlete when he was injured. Alves, on the other hand, proved to be an excellent father and often spent time with his son and daughter.

In 2017, the footballer remarried. His chosen one was the Spanish model Joana Sans. The wedding of the lovers took place in an atmosphere of secrecy. The guests were invited to visit the island, where the ceremony took place.

Dani Alves took his first steps towards professional development at the academy of the Brazilian club "Jouazeiro".

The managers of the Bahia club noticed the potential of the novice athlete, and in 2001 the young man was offered a contract. The debut season was successful. It became clear that the guy was not mistaken in his profession, deciding to link his biography with football.

Its potential was appreciated by the Sevilla team scouts. At first, the player was rented out for 6 months.

At the very peak of his career at the club, the defender decided to leave the team, but he was not offered a contract extension. It was rumored that the athlete had misunderstandings with the Spanish tax authorities.

From 2016 to 2017, the player defended the interests of Juventus. In total, he played 33 matches during the season and scored 6 goals. On account of Daniel were the Italian Cup and the Champions League final, although the athletes lost to Real Madrid. Alves's departure from the team was motivated by a misunderstanding with the administration. However, he was in demand in another club.

In 2017, the Brazilian was hosted by Paris Saint-Germain. The player moved to PSG as a free agent and won the National Cup as part of the club in the first season. He also won the League Cup and the French Super Cup. Despite his mature age, at the age of 36, Dani did not think about "hanging his boots on a nail" and continued to play at the same level.
