After graduating from the Varsity Nine Football & Education Programme, Daniel took the next major step in his football career by signing a professional contract with Luton Town FC.
His time with the English club provided him with invaluable experience at a high level of competition, allowing him to refine his technical abilities, tactical understanding, and physical conditioning within a professional setup.

“THE VARSITY NINE TEAM HAVE BEEN INTEGRAL TO MY NEXT MOVE IN FOOTBALL.”
Eager to embrace new challenges and broaden his horizons, Daniel made the transition to the United States to continue both his academic and athletic development. He joined the soccer program at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) in Los Angeles, an NCAA Division I institution known for its competitive soccer program and strong commitment to student-athlete success.
In the 2024/25 season, Daniel was rated as one of the top 100 collegiate soccer freshmen in America - an impressive accolade that reflects both his immediate impact at LMU and his high potential moving forward.
