Robert Mühren (born 18 May 1989 in Purmerend) is a Dutch professional footballer who currently plays as a striker for AZ in the Dutch Eredivisie.

Career

Early career

Mühren made his professional debut for boyhood club FC Volendam on 5 August 2011, playing the full ninety minutes in a Eerste Divisie match against FC Dordrecht; the game ended 0-0.[1] His first goals for the club came in an Eerste Divisie match on 30 September, netting twice in the first half as Volendam defeated Fortuna Sittard 3-2.[2] On 10 February 2013, Mühren netted his first professional hat-trick, and fellow strike-partner Jack Tuyp also scored a hat-trick as Volendam defeated Telstar 6-2.[3]

2013-14

On the opening day of the 2013–14 Eerste Divisie season on 3 August 2013, Mühren scored all of Volendam's goals in a 3-2 away victory over Almere City.[4] In a KNVB Cup match against Eredivisie heavyweights Ajax on 25 September 2013, Mühren netted a brace as Volendam fell to a 4-2 defeat in extra time.[5] The game came just six days after the death of Robert's uncle Gerrie Mühren, who started his career with Volendam before going on to be a part of the great Ajax teams of the 1970s that won three consecutive European Cups.[6]

On 10 February 2014, Mühren netted twice in the first half before completing his hat-trick in the second half, as Volendam defeated Jong FC Twente 4-2.[7] In the 32nd round of the Eerste Divisie tournament on 21 March, he scored in either half as Volendam defeated Jong PSV by a score of 3-1 at the Kras Stadion.[8] By scoring in Volendam's next fixture, a 2-1 defeat to Excelsior on 28 March, Mühren reached 24 league goals for the season and had completed a remarkable run of scoring in eight of his previous ten appearances.[9]

AZ

On 28 August 2014, Mühren signed a three-year deal with AZ Alkmaar, leaving for a fee of 350.000 euros.[9]

Personal Life

Mühren is the nephew of former Dutch internationals Gerrie Mühren and Arnold Mühren.[9]
