Career

Coventry City

Born in Bristol, Daniels progressed through Coventry's academy to sign his first professional contract in May 2012.[2] His professional debut for Coventry came on 14 August 2012, in a 1–0 victory over Dagenham & Redbridge in the Football League Cup.

Billy Daniels signed a contract extension in the summer of 2013. On 11 August 2013 Billy Daniels scored his first two goals in professional football in a 5–4 win for Coventry against Bristol City, including what turned out to be the winning goal. The win against Bristol City was particularly important to Daniels due to him growing up supporting their city rivals Bristol Rovers. Daniels followed this brace up by scoring in Coventry's away win against Carlisle United in the following league game.

However his progress has been halted by both the return of Coventry captain Carl Baker to the right wing position that Daniels had been occupying and also a hernia problem that has limited him to sparse substitute appearance in September and October 2013.

Notts County

On 15 January 2015, Daniels signed for League One team Notts County for an undisclosed fee, on an 18-month contract.[4]
