Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

D. Daniels is a 32-year-old central defender at Oldham, rated 11.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 209th of 254 on scout potential in the League Two. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (36.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.47 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Daniels.

Judged on this season alone, Daniels graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 44th of 55 of the 55 centre-backs in the League Two, on 2 clean sheets and 2.474 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 41 → 10). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2025/26.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 44th of 55 of the 55 centre-backs in the League Two. At 32 Daniels is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (19th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 11.4, Daniels carries the 44th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League Two of 55 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
