Charlton Athletic On 29 June 2011, Green was signed by Charlton Athletic for a fee of £350,000, signing a three-year contract. He helped Chris Powell's team win the League One title in 2011–12 and therefore promotion to the Championship in his first season with 32 appearances and three goals. However, he struggled to hold down a first team position in the Championship, making 18 appearances and scoring one goal in 2012–13.

Manager Karl Robinson said "he gives us another exciting option out wide, to go along with Daniel Powell and Dean Bowditch". He made 18 appearances and scored twice in all competitions during the 2014–15 season, He left Stadium mk in July 2015 after Milton Keynes Dons agreed to cancel Green's contract a year early.

Green scored his first goals for Luton in consecutive matches when he opened the scoring in a 2–1 win at home to Leyton Orient in the Football League Trophy on 1 September, before netting the final goal in a 3–1 win away to Cambridge United four days later. However, he fell out of favour after Still felt he lacked "urgency" and "passion". In his first league appearance for almost two months, Green opened the scoring in a 2–0 win over Barnet at Kenilworth Road on 14 November. He scored his fourth goal of the season 10 days later in a 4–3 defeat at home to Carlisle United.

He finished 2015–16 with 30 appearances and six goals. and was released when his contract expired at the end of the season. Manager Nathan Jones said "we've put it out that Danny won't be moving forward with us, but Danny knew that and we've got to make sure he comes back safely and prolongs his career and we think we've done that".

Chelmsford City Green went on trial with newly relegated League Two club Port Vale in July 2017, before signing for National League South club Chelmsford City in August 2017. On 26 August 2017, Green made his debut as a 58th-minute substitute in a 2–0 win over Truro City. Green took on the role of player-coach in June 2020.
