Daniel arrived at his hometown club in the summer of 1996 at the age of 11, joining as a youth player. He quickly ascending the ranks and eventually made his professional debut during the 200405 season in a league match against Rennes coming on as a halftime substitute.[1] He remained on the senior squad for the rest of the season making 23 total appearances that season. The following two seasons, his play was heavily limited, mainly due to fracturing his left foot in a match against RC Lens on March 20, 2006.[2] The injury forced him to miss not only the rest of the 200506 season, but also the beginning of the 200607 season, in which Toulouse qualified for the UEFA Champions League.
Daniel endured more injuries during the 200708 season. A shoulder injury forced him to miss Toulouse's Champions League third round qualifying matches with Liverpool, where Toulouse were eliminated 05 on aggregate. He returned for Ligue 1 play, but picked up another injury forcing him to miss the rest of the season. He appeared in only 42 league matches over those three years. He returned to form for the 200809 season appearing in 29 league matches and scoring one goal against Le Havre[3] contributing to Toulouse's 5th place finish. He also scored a goal in Toulouse's 80 thrashing of local side FCE Schirrhein in the Coupe de France.[4] He recently signed a contract extension with the club that will keep him with the Midi-Pyrnes side until 2014.[5]
Daniel has played on various youth football teams of France. He was a member of the France U-21 team collecting 7 caps and scoring two goals. Due to fracturing his foot, he missed the 2006 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship. He has yet to be capped by the senior national side. He was named to the Guadeloupe national football team preliminary squad to participate in the 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup, but did not make the final squad. His call-up and participation would have not hindered future selections from France for Congr, as Guadeloupe (a French overseas department) is not a member of FIFA.
