Left-back from Stockholm Daniel Svensson is said to have been relevant for Molde four years ago, but he chose Danish football and FC Nordsjælland instead. Although we have no idea how it would have gone in Norway, it can be said that the transition for the young defender has been successful.
A year after his transfer from IF Brommapojkarna, he was moved up to the first team of Nordsjælland in the summer of 2021 where he has made more and more of a name for himself despite being nicknamed “Daniel Svensson often goes under the radar at FC Nordsjælland, but the 22-year-old Swede is instrumental to the way we want to play Captain 🎼
Kian Hansen, Jeppe Tverskov and head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup talk about the importance “Svennis” has for FC Nordsjælland ❤️💛 in an interview with the club this spring.

Daniel Svensson has recently been rumored to several big clubs.
FotbollDirekt reports Leeds are on the ball, while Danish Tipsbladet gets a slightly more cautious comment: “I haven’t heard anything about it and it’s not my focus now. My full focus now is what I do here in North Zealand. So no, I don’t know anything about that”
Leeds tried to get back to the Premier League this season as well after losing momentum and finishing in 3rd place in the Championship last season.
On Sunday, Swansea host Leeds in the Championship.
But Leeds are not alone in following the young full-back. Earlier this autumn, it was reported that several PL giants, among others, are monitoring Svensson. It is then about Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City who will have the 22-year-old on their radar. – There are also a couple of clubs from the Bundesliga who are watching without us having clarity on which ones.
So the question is how long Danish Nordsjælland will be able to keep their golden nugget. Daniel Svensson joined his current club from BP in the summer of 2020 and has played a total of 17 games and two assists this season. He made his national team debut in mid-October.
