Thomas Vermaelen (born November 14, 1985), is a Belgian footballer who currently plays for Ajax.
Vermaelen started his career in his home country at Germinal Ekeren that later changed their name into Germinal Beerschot after a merge. In 2004 he moved to Dutch side Ajax and made his professional debut on February 15, 2004 in a 2-0 away win over FC Volendam. It was however the only match he played during the season in which Ajax won the Eredivisie championship. He was sent on loan to RKC Waalwijk for the 2004-05 season. At RKC he was no first team regular, but still managed to get 13 appearances in which he scored two goals.
His breakthrough came with his return to Ajax where he fought himself into the first team and won the KNVB Cup. This performance led him into the Belgium national football team. The Johan Cruijff-schaal and another KNVB Cup were added in the following season and in 2007 he won the Johan Cruijff-schaal for the second consecutive time.
