Ihattaren, wasted talent and possible retirement at 21

Mohamed Ihattaren became the last great talent in Dutch football. He made his debut for PSV at the age of 16 years, 11 months and 14 days, a club where his scout compared his potential to that of Frank Rijkaard or Marco van Basten.

However, his non-sporting life led him to dampen his level on the pitch. 'Goal' recently reported that Juventus are speeding up the process to terminate his contract at the age of 21.

In addition, 'De Telegraaf' reported that police arrested Mohamed Ihattaren and searched his house in Utrecht after he was charged for allegedly assaulting his ex-partner. Not only that, he was also arrested for maintaining "close links with organised crime criminals".

Football regrets losing a talent who was destined to mark a generation in the 'Oranje'. We will have to wait and see if this situation culminates in his retirement.
