In 1999 he moved to PSV Eindhoven and won four titles in six seasons.

FC Barcelona won the race and signed the international . When he arrived in Barcelona, ​​he asked journalists to interview him in Spanish so that he could learn the language as quickly as possible.

For the season 2006/07 he joined after a year of playing time for the Catalans, with whom he, the Spanish championship and the Champions League had won, to Bayern Munich , where he received a three-year contract. According to the manager of FC Bayern, Uli Hoeneß , the transfer fee was six million euros . He made his debut for FC Bayern Munich on September 9th in the DFB-Pokal match against FC St. Pauli . He made his Bundesliga debut on September 16, 2006 (4th matchday) in a 1: 2 defeat at Arminia Bielefeld .

Van Bommel in the European Championship group game against Germany on June 13, 2012

Van Bommel made his debut in his country's senior national team on October 7, 2000 in a 4-0 win over Cyprus . Since Elftal failed to qualify for the 2002 World Cup and an Achilles tendon injury forced him to cancel shortly before the 2004 European Championship in Portugal , he had to wait a long time to participate in a major tournament. The 2006 World Cup in Germany was van Bommel's first major tournament. During the qualification, van Bommel only appeared six times in twelve games because the Dutch national coach Marco van Basten was dissatisfied with his performance. Although the relationship between coach and player spoke against a nomination, van Basten appointed him to the Dutch squad . In the finals he was used in three out of four games.

After the World Cup, van Bommel was no longer considered for the two qualifying games for the 2008 European Championship against Luxembourg and Belarus . He declined the appeal for the game against Bulgaria , saying that he “no longer wanted to play for the Netherlands under Marco van Basten”.

After the EM 2008 Bert van Marwijk became the new bond coach, whereupon van Bommel expressed his interest in wanting to play for the national team again, with the words “I always said that I wanted to go back when Marco van Basten is gone. Now he's gone, and it just so happens that my father-in-law is the new Bondscoach. If he needs me, I'll be there. ” Stated.

In August 2008, van Marwijk nominated his son-in-law van Bommel for an international test match against Russia . He then played for the Elftal in seven of the eight qualifying games for the 2010 World Cup and scored one goal each in the away games in Norway and Iceland.

Van Bommel was also in the squad for the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa. With the Netherlands he reached the World Cup final for the first time in 32 years , which was lost on July 11, 2010 with 0: 1 to European champions Spain .

After his return, van Bommel became a regular player and an important pillar in the national team. Before qualifying for the 2012 European Championship began , van Bommel was named the Elftal's new team captain . He thus succeeded Giovanni van Bronckhorst , who previously held this position until his retirement after the 2010 World Cup.

After the Netherlands left the European Championship in 2012, he ended his national team career on June 20, 2012.

Career as a coach

In the summer of 2018 van Bommel's engagement as head coach of PSV Eindhoven began . In its first season , the team won the runner-up under their former player.

Unsportsmanlike conduct

Mark van Bommel was repeatedly criticized for unsportsmanlike conduct and abuse during his time at Bayern Munich . In February 2007 he was suspended for a provocative gesture towards Real Madrid fans in the UEFA Champions League . In March 2007 van Bommel tried to hit his opponent Pavel Pardo from VfB Stuttgart with his elbow, but he failed. Although there were massive protests and criticism in the media, van Bommel was acquitted by the DFB control committee. In July of the same year, van Bommel pinched his opponent Fernando Meira's genitals during a league cup game . Subsequent investigations by the DFB led to a suspension of three games due to "grossly unsportsmanlike behavior". In February 2008, van Bommel used his elbow against Rafael van der Vaart from Hamburger SV and received the yellow-red card in the same game due to a provocation to the referee. In addition, additional investigations into obscene gestures towards the referee were initiated. In April 2008 van Bommel was sent off against VfL Bochum in the 27th minute of the game for repeated foul play with yellow-red.

However, van Bommel was repeatedly attacked by the media because of his playing style. For example, he was and is known as "Rüpel" and "Rambo".

Others

In 2010 van Bommel was honored with a language prize from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU). The VU language center examined the speaking habits of 26 Dutch national players in their mother tongue. Van Bommel argues best in the opinion of linguists. His rhetoric is well developed, and he does not use the empty phrases of footballer's language. As soon as van Bommel leaves the field, he analyzes the game in an understandable way. After an award for coach van Gaal, Van Bommel's award was the second language award for employees of FC Bayern Munich.

He is married to Andra, the daughter of the football coach Bert van Marwijk , and has three children.
