Dan Leon Glazer (or Glezer,[1] Hebrew: דן ליאון גלזר; born 20 September 1996) is an Israeli professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Greek Super League club OFI Crete and the Israel national team.[2]

Early life[edit]

Glazer was born and raised in Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel, to an Israeli family of Ashkenazi Jewish (German-Jewish) descent.[3][4] He is the cousin of fellow Maccabi Tel Aviv academy graduate Daniel Peretz, and the older brother of twin-brothers Tamir Glazer and Amit Glazer, who are all Israeli international footballers as well.[5][6]

He also holds a German passport, on account of his Ashkenazi Jewish ancestors, which eases the move to certain European football leagues.[6][7]

Club career[edit]

On 11 September 2023, Glazer signed a two-year contract with Super League Greece club OFI Crete.[8]

International career[edit]

Glazer made his international debut for the Israel senior team on 11 September 2018, coming on as a substitute in the 74th minute during a friendly match against Northern Ireland, which finished as a 0–3 away loss.[9]
