Clarence Clyde Seedorf (Dutch pronunciation:[ˈklɛrənsˈseːdɔr(ə)f]ⓘ; born 1 April 1976) is a Dutch professional football manager and former player. He is regarded by many as one of the greatest midfielders of all time.[3][4]
Seedorf is considered one of the most successful players in UEFA Champions League history, as he is the only player to have won the Champions League with three different clubs — once with Ajax in 1995, once with Real Madrid in 1998, and twice with AC Milan in 2003 and 2007.[5][6]
At international level, he represented the Netherlands on 87 occasions, and took part in three UEFA European Football Championships (1996, 2000, 2004) and the 1998 FIFA World Cup, reaching the semi-finals of the latter three tournaments.
In 2004, he was chosen by Pelé as part of the FIFA 100. Seedorf is one of the most decorated Dutch players ever, and has won domestic and continental titles while playing for clubs in the Netherlands, Spain, Italy and Brazil.[7]
