JUSTIN KLUIVERT, THE THIRD IN HISTORY !
Justin Kluivert, third player to score in all leagues from European top 5
Dutch forward Justin Kluivert became the third player in the history to score in each of the European top five leagues.
Prior to him, such a feat was achieved by Florin Răducioiu and Stevan Jovetić.
Kluivert joined them on 25 November when he netted for Bournemouth vs Sheffield United (3-1) which was his first goal in the English Premiership.
In his previous career, he has already scored goals in Italy (for Roma), Germany (for RB Leipzig), France (for Nice) and Spain (for Valencia).
Notably, Kluivert managed to cover all 5 “targets” at the age of just 24 years!
He is also one of 4 players in the history to appear in all 5 top European leagues, adding also Christian Poulsen, a Danish defensive midfielder, who, due to his position on the pitch, couldn’t score everywhere he played.
