Daniel Mercer is the Sports Correspondent for The European Times. He covers sports through the lens of society, culture, and European public life.

With a clear and balanced style, he looks beyond scores and results to explain how sport reflects broader issues such as youth development, equality, community identity, and international cooperation. For The European Times, Daniel brings a calm, factual, and human-centred approach to sports journalism, highlighting stories that connect competition with values, responsibility, and the people behind the game. And in case you have any questions, yes, he is very shy, and this is not his real name nor his real face.
