Dan Barlaser, born on 18 January 1997 (age 29), is an English central defensive midfielder now with MK Dons. His game has generally sat in the less glamorous part of midfield, which is not a complaint if the ball keeps moving and the shape holds.
His most productive league campaign came with Rotherham United in 2020–21, when he scored three goals in 33 appearances. That remains the clearest statistical marker in a career built more on continuity and use of the ball than headline numbers.
At MK Dons in 2026–27, Barlaser has made five appearances across all competitions, including four in League One and one in the League Cup. His current market value is around £1m, according to Transfermarkt.
Barlaser’s career has been that of an established lower-league midfielder: useful, experienced, and still active, with Rotherham providing the most notable spell so far and MK Dons his current platform.
