Happy Birthday, Nigel de Jong! From your fearless tackles at Ajax in 2002 to bossing the midfield for the Dutch national team since 2004, you've always been football's favorite tough guy. Rumor has it strikers still check under their beds for you before bedtime!Whether it's your iconic kung-fu kick in the World Cup final or dominating midfields worldwide, you've left an unforgettable mark (sometimes literally!) on football history. May your birthday be filled with fewer yellow cards and more cake slices—just don't tackle anyone reaching for seconds! Cheers to another year of legendary toughness and timeless style!
