Sari van Veenendaal surrenders
“It’s time to do fun things outside of soccer.” Sari van Veenendaal is giving up and hanging up her gloves at only 32 years old.
The goalkeeper of the women’s national soccer team injured her shoulder a few days ago during the match played at the European Championships against Sweden. That’s when the tournament ended for Sari, but no one expected her career to have ended as well.
European champion in 2017, Van Veenendaal made 91 appearances with the Oranje and wore jerseys for top clubs such as PSV Eindhoven, Arsenal and Atletico Madrid in her career.
