Danielle Michelle Gibbons (born 31 July 1992) is an English footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Blackburn Rovers of the FA Women's National League North. In 2015 Gibbons required surgery to remove a vestibular schwannoma, which made her deaf in her left ear.[3][4][5] Gibbons began her career with Preston North End and was signed by Liverpool ahead of the inaugural 2011 season of the FA Women's Super League. She was Liverpool's longest-serving player by the time she left the club for Sheffield, following the FA WSL Spring Series.[6] In 2018 she signed for Blackburn Rovers.[7]
