The Johnny-paparazzi-punchers of this world could learn a thing or two from Dani Alves.

After being omitted from the Brazil national squad for this round of fixtures, Dani Alves decided to use the international break as a holiday of sorts.

However, with rumours circulating that the Brazilian is set to leave Barcelona over wage demands, the press are just itching to speak to Alves.

Some of the media folk ambushed the defender at an airport over the weekend, desperately quizzing him on his future with the La Liga giants.

Alves artfully dodged the hounding reporters’ questions by simply ignoring them, and refusing to make eye contact. After spending eons just refusing to speak to the invasive journalists, Alves grabbed a mic and started belting out a song.

Check out the incredible footage below.
