Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on March 09, 1983)

Happy birthday to the legendary Clint Dempsey—the man who scored goals as effortlessly as he made defenders look silly! From Fulham's fearless attacker to Tottenham’s midfield master, you've always shown that fancy footwork is even better with a swagger and smile. Who could forget your iconic strikes in Europe or you leading New England Revolution passionately into two thrilling MLS Cup finals?

And let's especially celebrate what every American soccer fan remembers—your captaincy beginning in March 2013 where leadership met flair (and maybe an occasional rap verse!). Whatever you're doing today, Clint, keep shimmying past life's obstacles like they're Premier League defenders!
