Dan Barlaser was brought into the world on 18 January 1997, placing him at a ripe 29 years of age. Born amidst the charm of England’s green and pleasant land, Barlaser has devoted his footballing abilities to the critical role of midfield. He primarily thrives in the central defensive midfield for the renowned Hibernian Football Club. Being 6ft (1.84m) in height and carrying a sensible weight of 10st 3lb (65kg), the chap dons the jersey adorned with the number 22. The fair market seems to have valued this lad right around the €2.00m mark – or near about £1.7m for those partial to the old Sterling – as vouched for by Transfermarkt.
Barlaser's journey in the beautiful game began in earnest in July 2014, when he joined the ranks of Newcastle United in the refined Premier League. After cutting his teeth in the Premier League, January 2018 saw him sail from Newcastle United to the humble haven of Crewe Alexandra in England's League Two on what was a temporary loan agreement. His debut season at Crewe Alexandra (2017-2018) saw him welcomed onto the pitch in the first-team for a single league match.
After a short sojourn, August 2018 brought about Barlaser's transfer on loan to Accrington Stanley, again in England's League Two. In July 2019, he once again found himself on the move, this time alighting from the train of Newcastle United to board that of Rotherham United in the League One, yet again on a loan agreement.
At Rotherham United, across the 2020 - 2021 season, Barlaser was involved in 33 first team appearances, and he managed to score three times in league matches. He repeated his 28 appearances in the following 2022 - 2023 season, contributing two goals to Rotherham United's tally.
Barlaser then transferred from Newcastle United to Rotherham United in October 2020, this time the move was made permanent for an undisclosed fee. His exploits at Rotherham continued, with another 33 matches and 3 goals to his name in the 2020 - 2021 season and 28 matches with 2 goals in the 2022 - 2023 season.
In another shift of locales, come January 2023, Barlaser found his way to Middlesbrough in the Championship, migrating from Rotherham United for an undisclosed fee. Bathed in the glory of a new jersey, he participated in 11 matches in the 2022 - 2023 season, and he then cranked up his involvement to 33 appearances for the next season in Middlesbrough. His stint continued till the 2024 - 2025 season, where he made 23 appearances and also managed to add a goal to his repertoire.
With September 2025 came yet another change. Barlaser once more found himself on the move, headed away from Middlesbrough in the Championship up to the Premiership in Scotland, to join the lads at Hibernian on loan. His current spell at Hibernian in Scotland has seen him make 20 first team appearances in league matches.
His contributions to Hibernian's cause were not only limited to the league, for he also graced the turf in both the League Cup (2025 - 2026) and the Scottish Cup (2025 - 2026) for Hibernian, with one appearance each as a substitute.
