Daniel Norouzi (born 3 January 1992) is a Danish professional footballer who plays for Vejle Boldklub, on loan from Brøndby, as a left back.[1]
Career
Club career
He came through the youth ranks of Brøndby, and was team captain during his youth team years.[2]
He was promoted to the Brøndby senior team in Autumn 2011, but shoulder and knee injuries prevented his debut.[2] Norouzi found himself third in the left back pecking-order, behind Danish international Thomas Rasmussen and Jan Frederiksen. In the Winter break of the 2011-12 Danish Superliga season, Rasmussen left the club, while Frederiksen sustained an injury, and Norouzi was poised to claim the left back position as his own.[3] Norouzi made his senior debut in March 2012, and played 12 of 15 games in the second half of the 2011-12 Superliga season.[4]
He signed a season-long loan contract with Vejle Boldklub in July 2013.[5][6]
International career
Norouzi made his youth international debut for the Denmark national under-16 football team in September 2007.[7] He played his first competitive international game in the 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship qualifying round in September 2008.[8]
He has played a total of 31 games for various Danish national youth teams, including two games for the Denmark national under-20 football team.[7]
Playing style
Norouzi was described by first club Brøndby as an aggressive left back.[2]
