Daniel Jones

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Born in Rowley Regis, West Midlands, Jones joined the Wolverhampton Wanderers academy at the age of ten and moved up through the ranks to sign his first professional contract at Molineux under Glenn Hoddle in January 2005. He made his first-team debut on 1 April 2006, in a 2–0 defeat to Plymouth Argyle at Home Park; he was replaced by Rob Edwards on 62 minutes. He played eight Championship games in the 2006–07 season, though only played one of these games from December onwards. In August 2007, he joined League One club Northampton Town on loan, with manager Stuart Gray already aware of Jones from his time as a coach at Wolves. He scored his first goal in the English Football League on 15 December, in a 2–2 draw with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. He claimed another goal six days later, in a 4–1 win over AFC Bournemouth. He had his loan deal extended until 25 January. Wolves boss Mick McCarthy agreed to the loan extension despite being keen to see the youngster's progress for himself. He scored his third career goal on 19 January, converting a 25 yards (23 m) direct free kick in a 1–0 win over Gillingham at the Priestfield Stadium. He returned to his parent club after this spell but after managing just one substitute appearance for Wolves, he was allowed to return on loan to Sixfields in March 2008 until the end of the 2007–08 season. He made a total of 39 league and cup appearances for the "Cobblers". Jones joined League One side Oldham…

Speaking in January 2013, former Sheffield Wednesday teammate Anthony Gardner described Jones as a "strong, tall, very athletic" player possessing "a great left foot" and a "great engine" who is "quick" and "good both defensively and in attack".

Jones has been a Wolverhampton Wanderers supporter since childhood.
