Anthony Danze (born March 15, 1984 in Perth, Western Australia) is an Australian football (soccer) player currently playing for Perth Glory as a midfielder in the A-League.

Danze was playing for his local side ECU Joondalup as a junior when talent scouts from Southampton F.C. signed him up to play in their youth academy in England. Danze turned down a contract offered by the Southampton F.C. determined to prove himself in Australia before leaving to play football overseas. Instead he signed for Perth Glory in Australia for the 2000/2001 NSL season from Vodafone State League side ECU Joondalup. In 2001 he joined the AIS in Canberra before returning to play for Perth Glory in 2002. Danze signed for Crystal Palace in September 2004 on a two year deal after a successful short trial and during this time played for the under 17 Australian national team in 2001 and participated at the 2004 Olympic Games and 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship. A highlight in his international career is scoring two goals against football giants Brazil at the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship.

Danze left Crystal Palace during the 2005/2006 season on a free transfer after spending the 2004/2005 season on loan at Milton Keynes Dons F.C. and playing reserve football for most of his time at Crystal Palace and returned to Australia where he worked on a casual basis for his family's tiling company and was playing for Inglewood United in the Vodafone State League. He was signed by Perth Glory on the 2nd of March 2007 before the start of the 2007/2008 A-League season along with three other players.
