Arjan de Zeeuw, a former Premier League defender, traded his football career for a role as a detective in the Dutch police force. He specialized in forensics and once had a unique experience where he was recognized by a suspect during an interview. He even took a brief moment to chat about football with the suspect.
A former Premier League defender was recognised while interviewing a suspect as part of his post-football job as a police detective.
De Zeeuw ended his career with Dutch side ADO '20, and played for Telstar between 1992 and 1995, but otherwise spent his entire senior playing career in "Having a medical degree, my first idea was to become a doctor, but at the time the Dutch police were looking for people with higher education to do a fast-track course into the police force. It sounded like a little bit of a boys' dream - being in fast cars and having a gun and all that stuff.
It is expected that he will combine the job with his work in the police force, having coached at several amateur clubs over recent years.
