Daniel Lønne Iversen (born 19 July 1997) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for English club Preston North End, on loan from Leicester City.

Club career[]

Iversen started his career in his native Denmark with Esbjerg before moving to English club Leicester City in January 2016, signing a contract until June 2019.[3]

Iversen moved on loan to EFL League Two side Oldham Athletic in July 2018,[4] the same day as he signed a new four-year contract with Leicester.[5] He made his professional debut on the first day of the 2018–19 season, starting the game against Milton Keynes Dons.[6] Iversen helped Oldham to an FA Cup "giant killing" against Premier League side Fulham, saving a late penalty in a 2–1 victory.[7] Iversen would go on to make 49 appearances in all competitions for The Latics.[6]

In July 2019, Iversen moved to EFL League One team Rotherham United on a season long loan.[8] Iversen made his Rotherham debut on 3 August 2019, in a 2–1 victory over AFC Wimbledon.[9]

In August 2020, Iversen joined Belgian First Division A team Oud-Heverlee Leuven on a season-long loan.[10] Iversen started five games before suffering a hip injury in the match against Oostende. Following his return from injury, he became second choice goalkeeper behind Rafael Romo, which resulted in his loan being terminated on 7 January 2021,[11] allowing him to move on loan to English club Preston North End that same day.[12] He returned to Preston North End for a second loan spell in August 2021.[13]

International career[]

Iversen has represented Denmark at youth international levels from under-16 to under-21.[14][15] Iversen was called up to the under-21 squad for the 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, playing in all 3 of Denmark's games and saving a penalty in a 3–1 victory against Austria.[16][17] In September 2019, Iversen received his first call up to the senior Denmark team for the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying matches against Gibraltar and Georgia.[18]
