Daniel "Dan" Potts (born 13 April 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a full-back for League Two club Luton Town. He played for the United States U20 team and the England U18, U19 and U20 teams.
Born in Barking, Greater London, Potts joined West Ham United aged nine and signed as a scholar in May 2010. He made his reserve team debut away to Wolverhampton Wanderers on 27 April 2011, and his senior debut at home on 17 December in a 1–0 victory over Barnsley, just one day after signing a two-and-a-half-year professional contract with the club. He received the Young Hammer of the Year award in May 2012 after making four appearances in 2011–12, in which West Ham were promoted back to the Premier League after a 2–1 win over Blackpool in the 2012 Football League Championship play-off Final at Wembley Stadium.
On 22 November 2012, Potts joined League One club Colchester United on loan until 22 December. He made his debut for the club one day later in a 5–1 defeat away to Milton Keynes Dons. Potts' loan was extended on 21 December for a further month.
