Donny van Iperen
Donny van Iperen (born 29 March 1995) is a Dutch footballer who plays as a centre back for Zimbru Chișinău in Moldova's top league.
He grew up in the Netherlands and trained with youth clubs HFC Haarlem, HVV Hollandia, AZ Alkmaar and SC Cambuur. He played for AZ Alkmaar II and later for SC Telstar, where he made his professional debut in the Eerste Divisie on 8 August 2016 against RKC Waalwijk. He also played for Go Ahead Eagles (including their reserve team) and Karaiskakis in Greece before joining Zimbru Chișinău in 2022.
In August 2022, during a match with Dinamo-Auto Tiraspol, van Iperen collided with the goalkeeper, fell into a coma, and was taken to hospital in Chișinău. He was moved back to the Netherlands for further treatment on 13 August, as Dutch facilities were considered better suited for his recovery.
