Netherlands' 2010 World Cup finalist and Inter Milan's Champions League winner — one of the finest attacking midfielders of his generation.

Wesley Sneijder was the driving creative force behind one of international football's finest underachievers — the Netherlands team that reached the 2010 World Cup final. At Inter Milan he was part of José Mourinho's Treble-winning side. He scored 31 goals in 134 appearances for the Netherlands — a record he held before breaking. His left foot was one of football's most valuable assets.

He became the most capped player in Netherlands history with 134 appearances.
