Daniel Svensson

Daniel Svensson of Borussia Dortmund was born on 12 February 2002 (age 24).

Daniel Svensson, born on 12 February 2002 (age 24), is a Swedish left-back now with Borussia Dortmund, where he wears squad number 24. His market value is around £2.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

His career is still shaped most clearly by FC Nordsjaelland. Across five seasons there, he made 127 league appearances and scored five league goals, becoming a steady fixture rather than a passing prospect. His most productive league campaign came in 2022-23, when he scored twice in 29 appearances.

The move to Borussia Dortmund gave him a larger stage, but Svensson remains more than a squad name in 2026-27. He has made 14 appearances in all competitions, including nine in the Bundesliga with one goal, one in the DFL-Supercup and four in the Champions League.

He has also been involved with Sweden, with appearances across World Cup, European qualifying and Nations League football. At club level, the broad shape is straightforward: a career built at FC Nordsjaelland, now being carried on at Dortmund with regular first-team use.
