Daniel Ricardo da Silva Soares (born 30 January 1982), commonly known as Dani, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Vitória F.C. as a midfielder.

Club career

Portugal

Dani started playing football for F.C. Vizela, located near his birthcity of Felgueiras. He remained 14 years with the club his youth spell accounted for, playing his first four seasons as a senior in the third division, the latter ending in league conquest and promotion to the second level.

For the 2006–07 campaign, Dani moved to the Primeira Liga with F.C. Paços de Ferreira, making his debut in the competition on 26 August 2007 in a 1–2 away loss against S.C. Braga (90 minutes played). He started in all his league appearances during his short tenure.

Cluj

During the 2007 winter transfer window, Dani signed for CFR Cluj in Romania for a fee of 600,000. He scored his first Liga I goal in a 1–1 draw at FC Unirea Urziceni.

Dani finished his first full season with 29 games as the team won the national championship, going on to be an important midfield unit in the conquest of seven major titles, including three consecutive Romanian Cups.[1][2]

Greece

On 31 August 2010, Dani signed a two-year contract with Iraklis Thessaloniki F.C. from the Superleague Greece.[3] He made his official debut for his new club on 11 September, in a 1–1 away draw against Atromitos FC.[4]

Dani scored his first league goal for Iraklis in the nineteenth round of the season, opening the score against AEK Athens F.C. in an eventual 2–0 win for the hosts.[5][6]

In late July 2011, Dani joined fellow league side Skoda Xanthi FC.[7]
