Daniel Haber (born 20 May 1992 in Toronto, Ontario) is a Canadian soccer player who plays as a forward for Apollon Limassol in the Cyprus First Division.
Career
Youth
Haber played three seasons for Cornell University, an Ivy League University in U.S. NCAA Division 1 soccer. In 2012, his junior year, Haber had an amazing 18 goals and 7 assists during the regular season and finished the year on top of the country in points per game and goals per game. In addition to leading the NCAA in scoring, in 2012 Haber was named a first-team All-American, Ivy League player of the year, and a finalist for the Mac-Hermann Trophy (U.S. college soccer's highest individual honour).[1]
Maccabi Haifa
Haber signed with Maccabi Haifa in the Israeli Premier League in early January 2013, after he decided to forgo his senior year of eligibility at Cornell University. [2] Haber although not playing any games in his first few months in Israel made the most of his limited minutes scoring 2 goals in 4 games in his first professional season, his first goal coming against Ironi Ramat HaSharon on May 5, 2013.[3]
Apollon Limassol
On June 24, 2013, Cyprus First Division side Apollon Limassol confirmed that Haber had signed a 1+1 year contract with them.[4] When interviewed, Haber stated that Haifa were interested in re-signing him, but he felt that this would be a good move for his young career, particularly with the opportunity of getting more playing time.[5] Haber scored his first goal for the club on September 28, 2013, in a 2-1 win over Alki Larnaca.[6]
International
On May 23, 2013, Haber earned his first call up to the Canadian senior National soccer team for a friendly in the following week against Costa Rica.[7] Haber made his senior international debut on May 28, 2013, coming on as a second half substitute for Issey Nakajima-Farran in a 1-0 defeat to Costa Rica at Commonwealth Stadium.[8]
