Frank van Eijs

Van Eijs has played for several teams in Europe, including spells in Belgium, Scotland, Germany and his native Netherlands, as well as China. He started out his football career at KV Mechelen before "injury forced him to turn to a university course and playing amateur football". In the summer of 1999, Van Eijs went on trial with Dundee in the Scottish Premier League and scored the only goal of the game, in a 1-0 win against Montrose. His trial impressed Jocky Scott, resulting in him signing a two-year contract with the club. Van Eijs made his debut for Dundee, starting the whole game, in a 4-3 loss against Hibernian in the opening game of the season. However, injuries and loss form saw him result in surplus of requirement for the club. With no appearance for Dundee in his second season, he moved to Germany to join RW Essen. He played for TOP Oss in the Eerste Divisie. In 2005 he moved to New Zealand to play for New Zealand Knights.
