'Made of glass' in an injury-hit spell at Chelsea, being forced out of Real Madrid before firing Bayern Munich to trophies galore with THAT left foot... Arjen Robben will be remembered as one of Europe's great wingers after retiring for second time

Arjen Robben announced his retirement for the second time this week after struggling with injuries having re-joined boyhood club Groningen.

The 37-year-old originally hung up his boots in 2019 after leaving Bayern Munich only to return to the game in June 2020 for a 12-month period with the Eredivisie side.

But the former Holland winger made his name with Chelsea, Real Madrid and most famously with Bundesliga giants Bayern, winning a colossal 28 trophies in his career.

However, Robben often suffered with serious knee injuries and it certainly left some wondering what might have been despite the obvious ability and talent he demonstrated when he was terrorising defences around Europe.
