Club career

Fortuna Sittard

After short stints at local amateur clubs Hoesen enrolled in the Fortuna Sittard youth academy. He was promoted to the first team in the summer of 2008 and made his debut for Fortuna on 15 August 2008, appearing as a substitute in an away match against Go Ahead Eagles.

Fulham

In August 2008 at the age of 17, Hoesen signed for Fulham and went straight into the Development squad.[1]

On 30 April 2011, after his first loan spell with HJK, towards the end of the 2010–11 Premier League season, Hoesen was named on the bench in the league game against Sunderland, but he didn't make an appearance.[2]

On 23 May 2011, Fulham confirmed that Hoesen had signed a contract extension and will remain at Fulham until June 2012. The club also had the option to extend terms until the summer of 2013.[3]

In April 2010, Fulham announced that the Dutch striker was set to join Finnish club HJK Helsinki on loan from 9 April until 30 August.[4] He made his HJK debut on 16 April in a 5–0 league win over KuPS. He scored his first goal for HJK on 29 May 2010 in a 1–2 away victory over IFK Mariehamn. Hoesen was released from his loan deal on 25 July due to a serious hip injury, more than one month before his contract with HJK was due to expire.

Fortuna Sittard (loan)

In August 2011, Hoesen joined Dutch side Fortuna Sittard on a season-long loan.[5] The striker returned to Fulham on 31 May 2012.

AFC Ajax

On 29 August 2012, Hoesen signed a three-year contract with Ajax.[6] His old club Fulham retained a 30% interest in the player.[7] He made his debut for the Ajax senior side on 3 October 2012 in the UEFA Champions League group stage match against Real Madrid, coming on as a 66th-minute substitute for Tobias Sana, in the 1–4 home loss for the Amsterdam side.[8] Danny made his Eredivisie debut for Ajax on 17 November 2012 in a match against VVV-Venlo, coming on as a 72' minute substitute for Christian Eriksen, and scoring the second goal in the 84' minute of the 2–0 home win.[9] Four days later on 21 November 2012, he made his second UEFA Champions League appearance, in the group stage match at home against Borussia Dortmund, coming on as a substitute in the 63rd minute for Eyong Enoh. The match ended in a 1–4 loss for the Amsterdam side, with Danny Hoesen scoring the only goal, off of an assist from his teammate Christian Eriksen.[10] Hoesen scored a crucial goal on 26 November 2013 in a Champions League game against FC Barcelona, that Ajax won 2–1.

International career

Danny Hoesen received his first International call up for the Netherlands under-17 team, where he played a major part in the teams qualifying campaign for the 2007 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship in Belgium, managing to qualify the Netherlands would finish third in their group, thus failing to advance past the group stage of the main tournament. His international debut was a 3–0 win over Albania U-17 on 23 October 2007 in the qualifying rounds ahead of the European Championship.

On 22 March 2013, he was called up by head coach Cor Pot for the Netherlands U-21 side ahead of a friendly match against Norway U-21 on 25 March 2013, to replace the injured Jean-Paul Boëtius. Hoesen came on for the second half of the game and scored on his debut for the under-21 side in the 4–1 victory at home. Hoesen was also selected for the squad in qualifying ahead of the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship in Israel but did not make the final squad for the tournament. It was later announced that he would in fact join the team to Israel to replace the injured Jürgen Locadia.[22] He scored the fourth goal in the 5–1 win over Russia U-21 on 9 June in the final group stage match of the tournament, also playing the full 90'-minutes against eventual champions Spain U-21 in the team's final match of the tournament.[23]
