Youth career

Due to Alves' Brazilian background, he travelled to visit some family in Brazil. Alves played with his cousins and took part in a few training matches, before he was spotted by an agent, which he made a deal with. The agent then brought 15-year old Alves to Coritiba FC.[2] Alves returned to Denmark after two years in Brazil and joined Silkeborg IF.

Career

Silkeborg IF

In the summer 2018, 19-year old Alves signed a 1-year trainee-contract with Silkeborg IF which meant, that he was going to train with the first team but play with the U19's.[3] On 26 September 2018, Alves got his official debut for Silkeborg in a Danish Cup game against Næstved BK, where he was among the 11 starting players.[4] On 1 November 2018, he signed a new deal until the end of 2020.[5] Except for the following two games, Alves played all of the remaining games for Silkeborg and helped the team promoting to the Danish Superliga which also gained him a spot on the Danish U-20 national team.[6]

On 1 June 2019, Alves signed a new contract until the summer 2024.[7]

Personal life

Alves' mother is Brazilian, while his father is Danish. For this reason, Alves has dual citizenship although he was born and raised in Hvidovre, Denmark.[2]
