· Yahoo Sports
Under José Mourinho, Wesley Sneijder won the Champions League with Inter 16 years ago. His greatest triumph. At the World Cup in the same summer, he and the Netherlands only lost in the final against Spain.

Sneijder looks back on a world-class career, still holds the record as the most capped player for Oranje, and played at the club level for major teams like Ajax, Real Madrid, Galatasaray, and Inter.
In August 2019, Sneijder announced the end of his active career at the age of 35. Today, the now 41-year-old celebrated his comeback, albeit not on the grand stage of football anymore.
Sneijder played for the Dutch fourth division team OSM'75 from Utrecht in the top match against the league leader Focus '07.
The appearance is somewhat of a family affair. One of his brothers also plays for the club, while another serves as an assistant in the coaching staff of OSM.
Whether this is a one-time appearance or if Sneijder really intends to lace up his boots regularly is still uncertain. OSM can certainly benefit from the presence and experience of a player of his caliber. They are fighting for promotion. Incidentally, they won the top match 1-0 and are now only two points behind Focus '07. What a story.
