Dani Alves Shows Off His Impressive Boot Collection
Brazil international Dani Alves has posted a picture of him with the boots he has worn in his career that started 20 years - and it is impressive.
During his professional career that started in 2001, Dani Alves has played for six different clubs - Bahia (2001-2002), Sevilla (2002–2008), Barcelona (2008–2016), Juventus (2016–2017), Paris Saint-Germain (2017–2019) and São Paulo (2019–2021)
Dani Alves Boot History
In his career, Dani Alves did not lace up in soccer cleats from a single brand but has been wearing boots from Adidas and Nike.
In 2001, Dani Alves started his career as a professional wearing the Nike Mercurial football boots before switching to the Total 90 in 2003. In 2004, he laced up in Adidas boots but returned to Nike and the Mercurial in 2005 again.
In 2011, Dani Alves signed with Adidas. In the first year with the Three Stripes, he wore the Adidas F50 Adizero, while he became a face of the Adidas Nitrocharge in 2013.
Dani Alves has switched boot brands five times in his career so far
In 2015, and after four years with the German brand, the Brazilian player decided not to re-sign with the Three Stripes. Instead, he reverted to Nike in 2015 for the UEFA Champions League final.
In 2019, Dani Alves again switched brands - back to Adidas. Since then, he has been wearing the Adidas X football boots.
During his career and the time between brand switches, Dani Alves has been often without a valid boot contract. He therefore often laced up in blacked-out boots.

Portuguesa 2026 Third Kit Released - Tribute to Portugal Ahead of 2026 World Cup
Brazilian club Associação Portuguesa de Desportos, commonly known as Portuguesa, has officially launched its new third kit for the 2026 season. Produced by technical sponsor Joma, the new uniform pays direct homage to the Portuguese national team, celebrating the club's deep historical roots as Portugal prepares to compete in the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
The new Portuguesa 2026 third jersey closely mirrors the classic look of the Portuguese national team, featuring a vibrant crimson red base enhanced by subtle jacquard detailing that provides a sense of movement to the fabric. The shirt is structured with a classic polo collar adorned with red and white edging and a green front point insert. The sleeves remain red with contrasting green underarm panels, while the cuffs match the collar's red and white trim.
Further solidifying the international tribute, the official coat of arms of Portugal is prominently displayed on the nape of the neck above the white player numbering. The alternative uniform is completed by green shorts and red socks, finalizing the classic Portuguese color scheme.
The kit is set to make its on-pitch debut this Saturday, May 16th, in a match against Água Santa.
