Nomadic Bafana Striker Lands New Club

Former Bafana Bafana striker Lars Veldwijk has found a new club, joining Emirates FC in the United Arab Emirates.

It will be the third UAE club for the 34-year-old South African/Dutch striker, who only left Dibba Al-Hisn SC earlier this year.

Veldwijk won seven caps for Bafana between 2016 and 2019, last featuring at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.

In his 16 years as a professional, Veldwijk, who has scored over 150 goals, has played football in eight countries and grown a nomadic reputation.

After playing in Holland, England, Belgium and Norway, he spent several seasons in South Korea. Short stints in Spain and Thailand preceded his recent activity in the UAE.
