70 years old (Born on May 18, 1954)
Happy Birthday, Eric Gerets! You defended Belgium's honor on the pitch with such tenacity from 1975 to 1991 that forwards still wake up in cold sweats remembering your tackles. Your legendary performances at Standard Liège and PSV Eindhoven made you a football icon—proving once again defenders can have style too!Even though you've hung up those boots since '92, your legacy remains timelessly impressive. May this birthday bring as much joy as lifting trophies or shutting down strikers did back in the day—and may no one dare challenge you to a friendly match today (for their own safety)!
