Timeline
Jan Anna Gumaar Ceulemans (born 28 February 1957) is a Belgian former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.
A prolific goalscorer, Ceulemans was known for his stamina, aerial ability and technique.
He was also known for his power, imposing frame and natural authority.
His first of three World Cup appearances was at the 1982 FIFA World Cup, where Belgium beat the defending champions Argentina 1–0 in the opening game of the tournament at Camp Nou en route to reaching the second round.
This period saw the Belgium squad record some of their finest results, which include reaching the final of Euro 80 and fourth place at the 1986 FIFA World Cup.
Ceulemans was born in Lier, Belgium.
Among Ceulemans' finest achievements was captaining his national side to fourth place in the 1986 FIFA World Cup, scoring three goals in the tournament including a spectacular diving header against Spain in the quarter-finals.
His performance earned the nickname "Captain Courageous".
He retired from international competition after the 1990 FIFA World Cup; Jan scored the third goal in a 3–1 win over Uruguay but Belgium was eliminated by England in the round of sixteen, with the winning goal being scored by David Platt in the 119th minute in extra time.
Jan had struck the post during the game.
Professionally, he stayed at Club Brugge for 13 years, endearing himself to his country when he turned down an offer from Italian club A.C. Milan.
He remains the only football player to have posed with the A.C. Milan board for the press that never actually became an A.C. Milan player.
After retiring as a player due to knee injury, he became a manager at KSC Eendracht Aalst in 1992.
He won promotion to Belgian First Division and even a qualification for UEFA Cup.
He moved in 1998 to K.V.C. Westerlo where he also qualified for UEFA Cup.
Ceulemans was named by Pelé as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March 2004.
In 2005, he is back at 'his' Club Brugge where he would be manager for three years but after several bad results he was fired in April 2006.
For the 2007–08 season, he returned to K.V.C. Westerlo.
He currently lives in Westerlo.
Ceulemans was also a regular member of the Belgium national football team, with 96 international appearances, a record that stood for 26 years until it was surpassed by Jan Vertonghen's 97th appearance for Belgium on 10 October 2017; Ceulemans is now the ninth most-capped for Belgium.
He still holds the record for most appearances in the Belgian Pro League with 517.
Most of his time with Belgium took place under the guidance of Guy Thys.
