A prolific striker, Huntelaar was once a sensation in the mid 2000s, and has drawn comparisons to the likes of Ruud van Nistelrooy and Marco van Basten. He was best known for his time with Schalke 04, where he played for 7 seasons, scoring over 100 goals for the German giants.

Huntelaar's skills and goal scoring abilities have earned him some of the most important individual accolades as a Dutch footballer. His appearances in three different World Cups made him one of the most important players for The Netherlands football team.

Having played for clubs like AC Milan and Ajax, the Dutch maestro was once part of the Real Madrid squad back in 2009, and played for almost 20 matches, scoring 8 goals, but due to the options available on the bench, Huntelaar had to leave for another club, and did so by joining AC Milan in 2009.
