Football in Denmark

Season	2007–08
← 2006–07 2008–09 →

The 2007-08 season in Danish football, starting July 2007 and ending June 2008.

For the first time since the 2002-03 season, the Danish clubs had obtained enough UEFA coefficient points to qualify the third-place finisher of the Danish Superliga 2006-07 for the UEFA Cup. Prior to this, only the second-place finisher would qualify, alongside the Danish Cup winner and the occasional Intertoto qualifier.

The following players appeared for Denmark during the 2007-08 season. All caps and goals are tallied for the 2007-08 season only.
