Wolves Women have completed the signing of Belgian forward Yana Daniëls, marking Dan McNamara’s third signature of the summer transfer window.
Daniëls, who has represented her country 45 times on the international stage, arrives with eight years of experience in the Women’s Super League with both Bristol City and Liverpool.
The 34-year-old followed former Liverpool boss Matt Beard to Burnley last season and was part of the side that lifted the FA Women’s National League title ahead of the Old Gold, alongside fellow new recruit Jas Matthews.
Daniëls’ career began at 16 in her native Belgium, playing for various clubs in the top division before crossing the Dutch border to join FC Twente. She moved back to her homeland to sign for Anderlecht, before her move to Bristol came in June 2017.
A player who can operate in a number of attacking positions, Daniëls adds to Wolves’ competitive squad ahead of a debut WSL 2 campaign in 2026/27.
Dan McNamara said: "When you look at what someone like Yana has achieved in the game it is an absolute no-brainer for us to bring her in. It is not just club success at the top level but her international pedigree with Belgium that makes her really stand out. She will add to our squad on the pitch but also as an experienced head within the dressing room and we are really looking forward to being a big part of our squad going forward.
"With these players we are bringing in, we are hopeful that they are going to not just guide the group but also help the staff to enhance our environment to the levels to required to operate at the top levels of the game."
