Winston Lloyd Bogarde (born 22 October 1970) is a Dutch retired professional
He had spells at Ajax, Barcelona and Chelsea.[2] With the latter club he garnered worldwide attention when he received little playing time (no Premier League level appearances in his last three seasons combined), and nevertheless insisted on seeing out his lucrative contract.[3]
Bogarde represented the Dutch national team in one World Cup and one European Championship, being an international for five years.

Early years and Ajax

As the Dutch influence at Barcelona was reduced, so was Bogarde's, who only managed one league contest in his first full season, partly due to injuries,[6] although he bounced back for a second respectable one (21 games, two goals).[7][8]
Chelsea
Bogarde signed for
According to Bogarde, it would be next to impossible to find a team that would offer him a contract comparable to the one he had at Chelsea: he was astounded at the salary the club had agreed on, as his value depreciated severely due to lack of first-team action, and decided to stay and honour his contract to the letter and appear for training every day, despite being only rarely selected to play.[13] In the end, he only appeared 11 times during his four-year tenure, reportedly earning £40,000 a week during this period.[14][15]
After playing as a
During his spell at Stamford Bridge, the club attempted to sell Bogarde due to his large salary, and demoted him to the reserve and youth teams in an effort to pressure him to leave. In response to concurrent UK press criticism, he responded: 'Why should I throw fifteen million euro away when it is already mine? At the moment I signed it was in fact my money, my contract. Both sides agreed wholeheartedly (...) Few people will ever earn so many. I am one of the few fortunates who do. I may be one of the worst buys in the history of the Premiership, but I don't care.'[18]
International career
Courtesy of steady performances at Ajax, Bogarde was summoned to UEFA Euro 1996 by Netherlands manager Guus Hiddink, who also included him in the squad for the 1998 FIFA World Cup.[19] A starter in the first competition, he only backed up Arthur Numan in the second.
Bogarde had the chance to feature in his first start at a
Coaching career

In March 2020, Bogarde was temporarily promoted to the first-team coaching staff by manager Erik ten Hag, as Christian Poulsen was absent due to possible contact with COVID-19; after the 3–1 win at Heerenveen, the upgrade was made permanent.[25] In July, he was given a three-year contract in the role.[26]
Bogarde was ousted by Ajax on 1 June 2022, with one year remaining on his contract with the national champions.[27]

Bogarde's nephews, Melayro and Lamare Bogarde, are both footballers and Dutch youth internationals.[28]
