Brian Brobbey

Brian Brobbey is a powerful Netherlands centre-forward whose game is built on strength, running and a poacher's instinct in the box. He came through the Ajax academy, had a spell at RB Leipzig, and returned to Ajax to lead their line before a 2025 move to Sunderland, where he scored eight goals in his first Premier League season. Quick over a short distance and hard to knock off the ball, he gives the Dutch a different kind of focal point.

He announced himself on the biggest stage with a first-half brace in the Netherlands' 5-1 demolition of Sweden, his first goals at a senior World Cup.
