The two legendary Dutch brothers turns 47 today

De Boer Brothers The two legendary Dutch brothers turns 47 today

In football we had many brothers, but not so many of them - maybe no one at all - had the amazing career of Frank and Ronald De Boer. The two Dutchmen, who turns 47 today, shared their first steps in football, first in the academy and then in Ajax's firts team.

Then, always together, the went to Barcelona, where their path separated for a while. Frank stayed a little bit longer in Catalunya, before trying the Turkish adventure with Galatasaray. Ronald left for Glasgow, witht the Rangers, where later he was reached by his brother. Together they went to EAU for the last couple of years of their careers, and then they both chose to become coaches. The rest, as it is usually said, is history, but it's worthy to remember what the amazing De Boer Brothers were capable of doing on the pitch.
