René Eijkelkamp (born April 6, 1964 in Zwollerkerspel ) is a former Dutch football player . With Club Brugge , he won the Belgian Cup in 1995 ; with PSV Eindhoven he won the Amstel Cup in 1996 and became Dutch champions in 1997 . The striker was under contract with FC Schalke 04 for the last two years of his career .
Club career
Deventer / Groningen
After starting in the youth of his home club SV Dalfsen, Eijkelkamp made his professional debut for the Go Ahead Eagles in the honor division on November 8, 1981; the team from Deventer lost the match 1: 4 against Ajax Amsterdam . He stayed in Deventer for five seasons before moving to FC Groningen in 1986 . As a regular player he was able to score 47 goals in four seasons.
Mechelen / Bruges / Eindhoven
The KV Mechelen noticed him and brought him into the Belgian First Division . With the European Cup winner in 1988, he reached second place in the championship and the cup final in his first season. He stayed in Mechelen for two more seasons; In 1993 he moved to league rivals FC Bruges , which he left two years later as the Belgian cup winner to go back to his home country. At PSV Eindhoven he contributed nine goals to reaching second place in the Eredivisie in his first season and won the KNVB Cup and the Supercup with the club . In the following season he was Dutch champion and again Supercup winner with PSV, before he went to the German Bundesliga for FC Schalke 04 in the 1997/98 season .
FC Schalke 04
The Bundesliga team signed Eijkelkamp after winning the UEFA Cup in 1997 to replace his injured compatriot Youri Mulder . He made his debut at Schalke on August 1, 1997 in the Park Stadium in a 2-1 win against Bayer Leverkusen . The fans had to wait a few more weeks for his first goal in the royal blue jersey - but on September 30, 1997 it turned out to be a double: in the 68th minute of the UEFA Cup match at Hajduk Split , he initially equalized to 2-2 and five minutes later, the winning goal. On November 18, 1997, he met for the first time in the Bundesliga; Despite his 1-0 lead, the Knappen lost 2-1 in Bremen .
The lanky striker “delighted with his own movements on the pitch. Row by row he let his opponents run into the void through unorthodox contortions and marked wonderful goals. “During his Schalke time he stayed on his farm near Zwolle and had his brother Harold chauffeured him to training in Gelsenkirchen and back for an hour and a half . He became a crowd favorite at Schalke. But in his second season - after 17 years of professional football - his left Achilles tendon gave him a hard time. After five goals in 15 games in the first half of the season, football games were no longer an option; it soon became clear that the career was over. Once again, on the penultimate match day of the season in the last home game, he was allowed to play against Eintracht Frankfurt ; in the 63rd minute his compatriot Huub Stevens changed him for Hami Mandıralı .
National team
On November 16, 1988 Eijkelkamp made his first game for the Dutch national team . In Rome , Oranje lost 1-0 to Italy . His last of six games for Elftal was almost seven years later; on September 6, 1995 he was substituted in De Kuip against Belarus in the 65th minute against the later shooter of the 1-0 winning goal, Youri Mulder .
After the active time
In 2002 he became an assistant coach at Go Ahead Eagles. In 2004 he went to PSV Eindhoven in the same position, where he succeeded Erwin Koeman together with Fred Rutten as co-trainer of Guus Hiddink . In the summer of 2006 Eijkelkamp went to FC Twente in Enschede with Rutten . After a year he stepped down to work with his brother as a consultant for professional footballers. From the end of July 2008 he was back at FC Schalke 04 as an individual coach. For the 2009/10 season he returned to PSV Eindhoven and worked there again as Fred Rutten's assistant coach. For EM 2012 he will act as the national team's forward coach .
