Persistence is the reason Wesley Sneijder ended up at Inter Milan.

In the summer of 2009, the Dutchman was deemed surplus to requirements at Real Madrid who had just signed Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka for world record fees.



His marriage had broken up and he had endured an indifferent season on the pitch. Sneijder must have felt that circumstances were conspiring against him after being told he wasn't wanted at the Bernabeu. But despite several offers, the Dutchman maintained that he wanted to stay in Madrid, stick it out in the Merengues' galaxy of stars, aware of the risk that he may see little action on the pitch.

Clubs came and went, but Inter maintained their interest and were rewarded for their steadfast approach when the player finally agreed to move to the San Siro, accepting that he had no future in Spain.

A product of the Dutch club’s famous youth system, Sneijder was spotted at a young age and climbed the ranks at the Amsterdam club.
