Roy Makaay Birthplace: Wijchen Height: 188 cm Date of birth: 9-Mar-1975 Position: Attack Current Club: Deportivo la Coruna Debut: 5-Oct-1996 Wales (1) v (3) Netherlands Caps: 21 Goal: 2 Roy Makaay made his professional debut at 18 years of age playing for Vitesse Arnhem. In 1993, he came on in place of Dutch international Glenn Helder in an away match against MVV (Maastricht). The young player quickly displayed his talents in the top division of Dutch football. With his opportunistic, goal- orientated playing style, he even attracted the attention of Louis van Gaal, at that time with Ajax Amsterdam. The asking price was too high for Ajax, however, and he moved to Tenerife for 10 million euros together with team-mate Ferdi Vierklau. Makaay, unfortunately, had little to cheer about on the Spanish island. The team was continually struggling in the lower regions of the Primera Division and to make matters worse, the many goals that Makaay scored did not prevent Tenerife from being relegated in 1999. Makaay left the Canary islands for Deportivo La Coruna. The big striker now feels at home playing for Deportivo. Now used to competing for honours and Champions League football the tougher the opposition, the better Makaay旧 achievements. The former Vitesse player has also earned a place in the 菷ranje squad amid stiff competition. His low goals-per-game ratio for the national team has a lot to do with the position in which he often plays. Dutch manager van Gaal often uses him as a right-winger, but Makaay prefers a more central attacking role. On 5 October 1996 Makaay made his debut in the Dutch national side, thanks to an injury picked up by Schalke 04 (Gelsenkirchen, Germany) striker Youri Mulder . Makaay is called up from the youth side as a replacement. He makes his debut in a World Cup qualifier against Wales (a 3-1 victory). Team manager Guus Hiddink gave him half a match. The national press viewed his first match with the 菷ranje as a creditable debut but eight months were to pass before he received a second call-up. Although now a regular in Advocaat's squad Roy Makaay, together with Arnold Bruggink, is the proud holder of the joint record (31) for the most appearances with national youth side. The multi-capped striker only broke his duck in his eighteenth appearance for Holland, but that was mainly due to his move out to the right in the national side. For the central striker role, Advocaat looks to have placed him fourth, behind Kluivert, Van Nistelrooij and Hasselbaink.
