Let's make this birthday one to remember.

36 years old (Born on April 04, 1989)

Happy Birthday, Vurnon Anita! You've been running the midfield so smoothly since your senior debut for Ajax back in 2005—we're beginning to think you're secretly powered by batteries. Cheers to all those slick tackles and impressive passes that left opponents scratching their heads while we applauded from our seats.

Just like fine wine or a timeless joke, you've only gotten better over time. Today we're celebrating every game-changing move throughout your career—the titles at Ajax, promotion battle victories with Newcastle United—each moment carved delicately into football folklore. Keep bossing around youngsters half your age on the pitch; happy birthday legend!
