Johan Danon Djourou-Gbadjere, more commonly known as Johan Djourou, is a Swiss international footballer who currently plays for Turkish Super Lig side Antalyaspor.

He used to play as a defensive midfielder in his youth for former club Etoile Carouge, but when he arrived at Arsenal, he was converted to a central defender. He occasionally filled in at full back for Arsenal and played several games in central midfield while on loan to Birmingham City. He spent time on loan at Hannover 96 in 2013 before joining Hamburg, initially on loan, later that year. In April 2014, Hamburg confirmed that they had activated the buying clause and signed Djourou on a permanent deal. In 2017, Djourou joined Antalyaspor.

He made his senior Switzerland international debut against Scotland on 1 March 2006. Djourou was called up to the Switzerland 2006 FIFA World Cup squad, despite not playing in the qualifiers. Later that year, he made two appearances during Switzerland's qualification campaign for the UEFA U21 Championship, but did not appear for the Swiss U21 squad since. After missing nearly the entire season for Arsenal in 2009–10, he was left out of the Swiss squad for the 2010 World Cup held in South Africa. He scored his first goal for Switzerland, finding the net in a 4–3 friendly loss against Japan in 2007.<\/P>","18E9F76C307DDD99":"778","4678B5349347B7EB":"87kg","A7F9B63E25A659E5":"Johan Djourou","e_index":1};
