Drenthe is a popular figure in Dutch talk shows. He speaks very calmly and maturely. He indicated that he left for Real too early at a young age. He lived alone in Madrid, without his parents. Suddenly he had half a million euros in his bank account and due to his impulsiveness he bought a new Porsche. Due to his wealth at a very young age, he also gained many bad friends around him. But Drenthe is now studying as an emergency care provider in a psychiatric center. He said he has finally found a job that fulfills him. He wants to help the weakest in society. Drenthe only plays football at the weekends at a local amateur club.
Hey! Today is my birthday and I got a little caught up in the celebrations and messed up the upload so if you noticed two copies of the same video being uploaded at the same time that was why 😅
PS: Thanks to everyone wishing me a happy birthday, i would thank you all but I'm making up for lost time now, trying to finish next saturday's video
happy birthday
Happy birthday brother ❤, hope you have an amazing life and continue making these amazing videos.
Happy birthday :)
Happy birtday
Happy Birthday!
Honestly sounds like a happy ending. He was ona destructive path and instead he helped people and it helped him find himself. That’s poetic honestly
Yes. I thought so. All his wrong doing is mended by that one action.
Just give it time, once the new and fun phase is over he finds a reason to fail again. He did this with everything and has not mentality to work for it.
@@Butterfingers1989 he literally has nothing to lose and his ego is sobered down with age😅
He's now helping people who are suffering with depression etc. Last time when i saw him on dutch television, he was telling us, that he has some good stories for these people, to make them laugh sometimes. He said, if they think they're stupid or dumb, i tell them some real crazy shit ;-)
That's amazing.
Drenthe is actually very liked now in the Netherlands. He's on a lot of podcasts, talkshows and he works in the healthcare industry now.
Wow, thank you for the update!
He got matured
That’s so good to know
yea? never heard of him
zero ball knowledge@@darkfoxjj
I remember how much of a beast he was during his early days at Madrid. I'd always wondered what happened to him
He rose on te 3rd day and floated back to heaven
Me too
Lack of professionalism and work ethic
That goal against AC Milan in the 2009/2010 season
He has 8 kids and is doing fine now.
This guy was insanely talented and looked with every cent when Real first signed him but he's clearly proof that talent is nothing without hard work and dedication
Balotelli too. In his early days at Inter they thought they had a legit world beater on their hands. And instead he is remember for two goals for Italy, and a slightly lucky assist for Aguero (albeit at a MONUMENTAL moment in City's history).
@@023achilles you don't have to tell me about Balo, I'm Interista, I've yet to see a forward that was as complete at the age as he was at 17, even competely dominating the Juventus defence in a cup game both technically and physically. However he was a very troubled boy and never realised his true potential.
@@023achilles Reminds me of Ronaldinho. Surely, he had established his legacy in a way but his lack of discipline did ruin not only his career but also his personal life in the end. What a sad story.
@@kohikappuproduct of their environment, it’s very common for Brazilians because of their childhood circumstances. This always happens to people that come from nothing because they go from being poor around poor people to suddenly becoming rich
Great vid! You should do one on Ihattaren: Debuted at 16 at PSV Eindhoven and peaked at 16… When he was 17 his dad died and it was all down hill from there. He had the potential to be Moroccan Ruud Gullit but instead he went the opposite way. This year Juventus terminated his contract because he is unworkable, he married a TikTok-girl and got kicked out of his house because he didn’t pay the mortgage… Crazy thing is; he’s only 23. I think with his talent he can be making decent money playing football after one year of serious training again, instead this guy seems to be on a path of destruction and he doesn’t leave it for some reason.
That’s to small of a story. Nobody outside of the netherlands knows him.
@@cristobalbalenciaga7295 So? I've also watched and enjoyed videos about Brazilians I've never heard of. Tbh those were more interesting than videos about neymar or ronaldinho
@@TheBobiaan so were those stories about kids who peaked at 17..? There’s nothing to talk about with ihattaren. His career is to short to be interesting. I’ve seen plenty of stories about brazilians i didn’t know either. But they’re old now and there was a story to tell because they’ve lived a live. Ihattaren isn’t known, doesn’t have a career, and hasn’t lived long enough to be interessting. What is there to tell about this kid?
@@cristobalbalenciaga7295 the fact you don’t know kinda legitimizes a video on him. Right now he is being prosecuted for domestic violence on his former girlfriend who is his wife now…and he recently signed a contract in Prague. Despite the fact he is young there is enough material on this kid to make a Netflix series on him.

Drenthe at Hercules was a complete beast. Best season of Hercules with a young Kiko Femenia, David Trezeguet and Haedo Valdez
Trezeguet was such a good player in his prime!
I remember when he destroyed Barca. Amazing performance
Man! These stories are always captivating!
Great content as always!
what a title ! i already know this will be another outstanding video
That U-21 final was one of the first game I stayed up late to watch. I remember Drenthe obliterating my country and I couldn't even be mad, given how entertaining it was. It is a shame, he didn't fulfil his potential, but it's almost impossible to party a lot, be a complete jerk and become a successful player. There are plenty of examples of one of the two, but it's very uncommon for someone to succeed with both
True uknw he could be better 😢🎉❤❤😮😊
Happy birthday Lucas thanks for the new video upload
I really like your take and research for these footballers and also can't wait for next one. Because people like you that we need so we won't forget how great and unique footballers from the past are. If i can request, it will mean the world to me if you wrote something about luca toni or del piero
Goated vids 🙏🏽
how many great "wonderkids" crumble to arrogance, stress, pressure, ego and don't have the mentality even though they have the talent, its amazing. I'm 31 and I wish I had joined a football club when I was younger.
There's a lot more to it than "joining a football club while young".
Which country are you from if u don't mind
Happy birthday bro 🎉🎉 thanks for releasing nice videos and again thank you God bless you
You do a great job bringing these stories to light, I'm sure someone will learn from it. God bless you
He can be an example for younger talents, how mentality & attitude can destroy you
But actually he is not the 1st and wont be the last example
What a lovely narrative mate. Very well done!
Being top class is all about attitude and having a bad attitude is a carear killer
An interesting detail that is not mentioned here is that Drenthe was also a very talented inline skater. Whilst at Feyenoord, he'd also hang out at the halfpipe and do his tricks. I think he even had pro sponsors or numerous offers, but at some stage football took over and the club couldn't risk him getting injured during 360 flips for red bull. Just shows how talented and also distracted he was from the very beginning.
Great video 👍
Happy belated birthday hope you had a great day and thanks again for uploading these videos 🫶🏾🙏🏾
Smart video. Well done.
It's a shame he never reached his true potential. Drenthe had all the tools to become a great player but lacked the discipline to get there.
i feel he did reach his potential by being of service to others, and finding peace in himself. foot ball means nothing next to acts of service and inner peace.
He didnt lack discipline. He was surrounded with leeches who made him a fragile human being.
this man gets it@@bulldogjoe1804
All the gear but no idea
says the youtube guy with anime pictures...trust me this guy reached heights youll never begin to dream about.@@lordjaisen4388
A new sub,.. I'm getting more into futbol and your shows helps. Good stuff..💯
When I was obsessed with Football and playing Futsal and Association, I always loved tricky and skilful technical players. I played CM and my coach nicknamed me Redondo for years. Around this period, the Dutch had Drenthe and Daniel de Ridder who were amazing on the ball. They were ‘Street Players’ and that’s why I liked them. It’s sad that they just never became mega stars. Tragic. Drenthe was awesome.
Daniel De Ridder, that’s a name I’ve not heard for a while. He had some skills, loved him at Wigan.
Fernando Redondo was a great but extremely underrated midfielder.
@@kohikappu Extremely underrated but was just amazing on the ball. Technically gifted
Bro your vid titles are crazzy
This is really a sad story of Royston Drenthe boss to be honest with you and I do feel that Real Madrid ditched him because of Marcelo boss but he was a good player,good friends!!!Yet,some of his atrocities made him to lose his true potential and only a miracle can save him to be a quality footballer,good friends!!!🙏
Such a good funny lad. Now a nurse...luv it ❤groetjes uit Rotterdam ❤
I always wondered what become of him i remember watching him play about 15 years ago and thinking to myself who is this kid? He could of gone far but he fumbled the many chances he had.
He works in healthcare these days, something he got from a lot of people in his family. Watching recent interviews he's turned into an emphatic, nice and intelligent man.
Good one
LOL best part of the video: 8:48 and the "many B-list clubs" list including PSG :D
I remember when he was at Everton and I thought he was going to be one of the next best players in the world. Then I just never heard of him again after his loan and always wondered what happened to him
Well, a sombre ending sure is better than a flat-out sad ending, wish him the best.
Tbh, footballing wise it's sad, but he's happy now and he helps people. Still goes to talkshows, he seems to be in a good place now.
do a video on Paolo Guerrero, just won the Copa Sudamericana at 39 years old and named best striker of the tournament🐐
Funny you mention him. I'm actually in the middle of an FM 2008 save with Hamburg here and he just helped me win the Bundesliga with 30 goals in 33 games. Absolute weapon. AC Milan offered 23 million for him in the summer and the board accepted on my behalf 😢
@@roryslaine7896 i’m peruvian so he’s our national hero and all time top scorer. he even got a nomination for a ballon d’or which is the first peruvian to do so🐐
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRO
First view from kenya
I've read an article about him a few years ago. poor man lost his kid to an accident involving astma. I hope he's doing well now
So listen to this.........
Happy birthday 🤘
I subscribed because you called PSG a B-tier club. First football related channel that speaks facts.
Drenthe was so great in Real Madrid. I really loved how he played !
Having the talent is not enough. Discipline, hard work, sacrifice and humility are also very important as well as surrounding yourself with good people.
Humility? That one is optional I think
I don't think so. Pride comes before the fall.@@TheBobiaan
@@maxgonzalez214 Well, that's definitely not always true and even when pride comes before the fall, the fall might come after achieving everything possible. You can't say Conor McGregor is a failed Athlete or had a failed career. And you can't say Muhammed Ali or CR7 are humble by any means, and they are in top 5 athletes of all time imo.
And not just in sports, I am pretty sure I can name more succesful arrogant people than you can list "pride comes before the fall"-cases.
Idk what you do for a living, but I can tell you that in the world of finance related jobs, the higher you go through the ranks, the rarer humility becomes. The people I know that make 1M $ a year are very smart, extremely hard-working and more often than not, arrogant assholes. As far as I know and experienced, this is not the case in academics. The best and most influential mathematicians are generally quite humble for example.
The goat
Do one about Thomas Brolin!
Can we just remember how daily dose of football never fails to spread our cheeks
Ayo 🤨📸
@@bikaskumarkundu2638Pause
yo?
say what?
Weirdo.
I recognized Drenthe immediately... This guy was phenomenal
He got a special look, never seen a game with the guy and i too recognized him instantly.
Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉
happy birthday.. ❤🎉
I watched the under 19 tournament he was indeed the player of the tournament playing at left wing. He was not going to play left wing for Real as they had Robben and Iguain playing on the wings. Iguain played wing to accommodate, Raul, Nestleroy and Huntelaar at strike. Two years later they signed Ronaldo.
Happy birthday 🎉
The narator is talking so funny...brother is choking...😂😂
Make a video about Pepe pls P.S. Love your videos
Sounds like a good guy deep down. Glad he’s doing better now.
Sounds. But he’s not
Best storyteller out
Can you do a video on David Bentley? Really interested story, incredible he quit pretty much in his peak. Former arsenal, spurs, blackburn player
Nobody deserved a subscribe from me more than you did. I love your videos
First time hearing about this guy but it is a shame he flopped because he was very skillfull
I remember him playing in the under 21s tournament one year and bossing it I think it was 2007, Madrid snapped him up real quick after that, it was around the time Madrid were buying a lot of Dutch players from what I remember .
Think I saw him play in that same tournament. I remember talking about him with a friend at school around the same time. We were both convinced he was the next big thing.
It's literally in the video! Sneijder and Robben! LOL
What amazes me is that this hasnt just happend once Ronaldinho went through it drinking at night living with a dead father I just feel like someday we will have a guy who will overcome all of it and become the GOAT
Not the same sport, but Jon Jones parties a lot, probably did drugs, failed a few drug tests and should've probably been in jail and he is arguably the goat of MMA.
I'm not sure it could happen in football though since not only competition is hundred times bigger, but because MMA fighters fight once or twice per year, five times at most while top football players have more than 60 games in some years.
It is possible that someone has the best tournament or the best season of all time while living recklessly (it could be argued Maradona fits that criterion), but I doubt anyone could do that for a decade or two
He's called Ronaldo, from Portugal.
Ronaldinho is not Ronaldo, because the latter never went hard-partying like him.@@023achilles
@@023achilles I think you spelled Messi wrong
@@hipryce273 OP mentioned a dead father. Ronaldo's father is dead, Messi's is not.
who remembers the chance he missed in the el classico match that Madrid lost i always felt it was that moment that broke him
It's never just one moment. Remember this, because it may help you on your journey.
Great video👌🏾
Sad to see how Royston failed in his career. He did not have the right people arround him and his background is not the most positive one.
Where did you saw that Davids is Drenthe his uncle? Never heard or read that ever over here in the Netherlands?
quite a few places actually, even transfermarkt confirms it
@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT i highly doubt it to be honest
The independent and ESPN confirm it as well@@Bassistent
Do your research. This guy is doing very well with al the social work he does at this moment.
Great insightful video as always, just wondering why you pronounce spanish names with portuguese accent instead of english.
Appy birthday 🎂🎂 :D
Being Dutch he is probably our biggest lost talent and we have had a few. Most recent one being Ihattaren. Also shout out to Foppe De Haan de quoted coach. One of the low key best coaches at the time because he was so club loyal. Being my favorite club SC Heerenveen.
I'm not Dutch but always admire the Dutch above all since the eighties. I knew Drenthe was going to be a problem from a very start of his rise, but I don't know what the hell happened to Ihattaren? There was also a bad timing to some potentially great players like Huntelaar and Makaay which for me suited to win more games for Netherlands but they were lost to seniority and big names in the national squad. I mean Hunter was a pure number 9 who win many tournaments with Jong Oranje but at his peak he bummed into Van Persie, which wasn't a pure 9.
@@marcsugi but I don't know what the hell happened to Ihattaren? No one really does. Or undersstood.
@@TheBobiaan ... Ihattaren allegedly ties with Morrocan mafia, via his girlfriend. Why the Dutch losing so many Morroccan descent footballer is also beyond me. Ziyech, Amrabat, Mazroui plays for Jong Oranje and in the last World Cup they go into semis.
@@TheBobiaan Ihattaren basically couldn't deal with losing his father a few years ago
@@marcsugi You basically answered you own question, didn't you? Ziyech didn't get the chance to play for the Dutch national team. I don't think he has any regrets about chosing marocco. Idk what mazroui plays in marocco since they have a world class rwb in Hakimi, but he wouldn't play in the starting 11 in the Dutch squad either
Happy birthday
As a Dutch guy I absolutely never knew these things, what a story!
i loved him in the u21, i was so happy when he went to real, he was awesome, i was always picking him in pro evolution soccer lol
what a tragic career.
PLEASE COVER RASHIDI YEKINI
High end football content.
Beautiful ending
So much what ifs in this guy's career.
Imagine having a God complex as a full back 😭
He was a Left Winger
@@dlamini77 then why was he the next Roberto Carlos and was replaced by Marcelo? Make it make sense. When he had the inflated ego he was a full back
@@dlamini77 He was a left wingback, hence then the next Roberto Carlos, later moved as the left winger as he wanted to save his career, which didn't do it as much to be fair.
When are you going to do Chalana?
Have some respect, Suriname aren't just immigrants
Wow I’d forgotten about him
Yet again proof that talent means nothing without the right attitude and work ethic.
the fact that he actually became a rapper killed me 😂
That U21 Netherlands team had so many talents its a shame they never lived up to expectations
People need to remember Mathijsen, what a talent he was, and then De Jong also.
But the most shamble other than Drenthe was the fact Huntelaar couldn't even beat Van Persie.
Please make a video on gattuso
Dayum!! Hommie was essentially Balotelli on steroids! I'm glad he was able to finally find somw peace
I like how you say Roberto Carlouch
Do a video about Edgar David
I always saw him on the Legendary Android Real Football... never really knew who he was
Do one on Mexican goalkeeper campos
Do one on Big Meeks (Micah Richards)😅
Can you do video for Branislav Ivanovic
Roberto Carlos...the best left back of all time ?
Where is Dennis Bergkamp episode?
Sometimes people who don’t deserve it get chance after chance after chance , he didn’t deserve it
Day 18 of asking for a Thomas Muller vid (pls, bro)
This is a story of redemption and a reminder that even footballers are humans.
Can u do a documentary on surinamese players that went to play fpr Netherlands?
The biggest one if in football.
Pls do a video on el magico gonzalez
Drenthe a player which i love him in EA FIFA 08 the biggest prospects but never gets what his talent deservves
