Arjen Robben was born on 23 January 1984 in Bedum. A Dutch footballer, Robben was a winger known for cutting in from the right onto his left foot, a move so familiar that defenders knew it was coming and still could not stop it. He played for Groningen, PSV, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, where he won eight Bundesliga titles and the Champions League in 2013, scoring the winning goal in the final against Borussia Dortmund. He was a key member of the Dutch team that reached the 2010 World Cup final and finished third in 2014. His career was frequently interrupted by injuries, and he retired in 2021.
