Arjen Robben (born 23 January 1984 in Bedum, Groningen)
Though often classified as a forward, he usually plays behind the forwards as a winger. He is also a part of the Netherlands national football team and has appeared in the UEFA Euro 2004, the 2006 FIFA World Cup and the UEFA Euro 2008.
Robben first came to prominence with F.C. Groningen, for whom he was player of the year for the 2000-01 Eredivisie season. Two years later he signed for PSV Eindhoven, where he became the Netherlands' Young Player of the Year and won an Eredivisie medal.[2] The following season Robben's signature was pursued by leading English clubs, and after protracted transfer negotiations he joined Chelsea in the 2004 close season.
Though Robben's Chelsea debut was delayed through injury, upon returning to fitness he helped Chelsea to consecutive Premier League titles, and was the FA Premier League Player of the Month in November 2005. After a third season in England which was punctuated by injury, Robben moved to Spanish club Real Madrid for £24 million. In his first season in Madrid, Real won the league title, Robben's fourth league title in six years.
