Biography

Toby Albertine Maurits Alderweireld (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɑldərˌʋeːrəlt]; born 2 March 1989) is a Belgian former professional footballer who played as a centre-back.

Alderweireld began his professional career at Dutch club Ajax, where he won honours including three consecutive Eredivisie titles. In 2013, he moved to Atlético Madrid, where he won La Liga and reached the UEFA Champions League final in his first season. After a year on loan at Southampton, he moved to Tottenham Hotspur in 2015 and once again reached the Champions League final in 2019. He left Tottenham in 2021, having made 236 official appearances in all competitions, to join Al-Duhail. After one season in Qatar, he returned to Belgium and signed for his hometown club Royal Antwerp, winning the Belgian Pro League in his first season there and scoring the title-winning goal, before retiring from football in July 2025.

Having been a senior Belgium international from 2009, he earned 127 caps and represented the country at the FIFA World Cup in 2014, 2018, and 2022, and the UEFA European Championship in 2016 and 2020. He retired from international football in March 2023.
