Dennis Nicolaas Maria Bergkamp is a former Dutch professional footballer. At club level he played for Ajax, Internazionale, and Arsenal, and also represented the Netherlands at international level.
Bergkamp played most of his best games as a support striker, where his tactical awareness and deft passes made him a great exponent of the game from the 'hole'.
He was selected by Pele as one of the FIFA 100 greatest living players and is widely regarded as one of the Premier League's all-time greatest players. In 2007 he was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame, the first and thus far only Dutch player ever to receive the honour.
He has also finished third in the FIFA World Player of the Year award twice. He studied and received a first class degree in Mechanical engineering from the University of Bath, choosing to study there during the summers of his time spent at Arsenal.
