Jani Tanska (born 29 July 1988) is a professional footballer who plays as a central defender for the Veikkausliiga side Ilves and is a product of MyPa youth academy. He spent three years with Charlton Athletic in 2004-2007.

Tanska made his Veikkausliiga debut with MyPa in 2004. He joined Norwegian side FC Lyn Oslo on loan for the 2006 season. Over the next years he played in Finland with KooTeePee, Jaro, VPS and TPS.

After a year with FC Lahti, Tanska was transferred to the Swedish club Assyriska FF in 2015, but ended up playing only six games there before his contract was terminated for financial reasons.[1] He then returned to Lahti and played there until the end of the 2016 Veikkausliiga season, after which he moved to Ilves.
