Daniel 'Dani' Jiménez López (born 5 March 1990) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Huesca.

Club career

Born in Lebrija, Andalusia, Jiménez finished his youth career with Sevilla FC, making his senior debut with the C team in the 2009–10 season, in the Tercera División. The same year, he also featured for the reserves in the Segunda División B.[2]

Jiménez signed a contract with Segunda División club CD Mirandés on 10 August 2012.[3] He played his first game as a professional on 8 June 2013, starting in a 2–1 home win against Sporting de Gijón.[4]

On 21 July 2014, Jiménez joined SD Huesca of the third tier.[5] The following summer, he returned to division two with AD Alcorcón.[6]

An undisputed starter for Alkor, Jiménez played all the league minutes in the 2020–21 campaign,[7] and on 16 September 2021 he renewed his contract until 2024.[8] The following 31 January, however, he terminated his link,[9] and signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with fellow second division side CD Leganés later that day.[10]

Jiménez backed up Asier Riesgo first[11] and Diego Conde later during his spell, achieving La Liga promotion in 2023–24 as champions.[12] On 28 June 2024, he returned to Huesca on a two-year contract.[13]
