Daniel Liam Sweeney (born 25 April 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Barnet.
In July 2012, Sweeney was one of five academy prospects to be invited to train with the first team and play for the development squad after the club pulled out of the Suburban League.
It is often claimed that Sweeney made a single appearance for the first team in February 2013, although this has proved untrue with Peter Sweeney instead featuring against Wycombe Wanderers.
In March 2013, Sweeney joined tenants Kingstonian following his release from AFC Wimbledon. On 4 March, he made his debut in a 2–1 London Senior Cup victory over Hanwell Town. On 6 April, he scored his first goal for the club in a 3–2 Isthmian Premier Division defeat to Whitehawk.
In October 2013, Sweeney was offered a trial with Championship side Ipswich Town and spent a week training with the club. He made a single appearance for the Reserve team.
On 15 June 2014, Sweeney signed a one-year contract to remain at Kingsmeadow. Despite being offered a contract ahead of the 2015–16 season, Sweeney rejected the offer and played for the K's on non-contract terms.
On 6 October 2015, he made his final appearance from the bench in the Alan Turvey Trophy in a 2–2 draw with Hendon. Taking the K's second penalty, Sweeney hit the crossbar but saw his side win 3–1 on penalties.
On 9 October 2015, Sweeney joined Isthmian Premier Division side Dulwich Hamlet following a seven-day approach. On 10 October, he assisted and scored on his debut in a 4–1 victory at Farnborough. He also scored in the subsequent five fixtures, claiming the Man of the Match award on two occasions.
