Bas Dost (Dutch pronunciation: [bɑs dɔst]; born 31 May 1989) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a striker for Belgian Pro League team Club Brugge.

Having begun his career at FC Emmen in the Eerste Divisie, Dost later played in the Eredivisie for Heracles Almelo and SC Heerenveen. In 2012, after being the top scorer in the league with 32 goals in 34 games, he was signed by VfL Wolfsburg. Four years later, having helped his team win the DFB-Pokal he signed for Primeira Liga side Sporting CP. He won the Bola de Prata for top scorer in his first Primeira Liga season, with 34 goals in 31 games. At Sporting, Dost won the Taça de Portugal once and the Taça da Liga twice, totalling 93 goals in 125 games.

Dost played for the Netherlands at under-20 and under-21 level. He was called up to the senior side for the first time in August 2012, but did not make his debut until March 2015. He earned 18 caps and scored once for the Dutch national team before retiring from them in 2018.

Club career[]

Early career[]

Born in Deventer, Dost's first club was CVV Germanicus in Coevorden, where he spent his youth career. After a few seasons, FC Emmen took Dost into their youth academy.

FC Emmen[]

Dost showed his potential at Emmen and the club offered him a contract before the start of the 2007–08 season, during which he played for the main squad. He started as on the bench, but later on in the season he was given more time to play. At one point he was just about to move to Finland, to RoPS as Emmen's former technical director Tom Saintfiet was coaching there. The move was turned down by RoPS's management.[citation needed] Dost scored his first goal for Emmen on 18 February 2008 in the game against Fortuna Sittard. Among later goals, the most notable were a hat trick in the Derby match against BV Veendam, which Emmen won 3–2.[1]

Heracles Almelo[]

Dost moved to Heracles Almelo in the summer of 2008, for a transfer fee of more than €300,000. Dost showed his potential and was considered one of the Eredivisie's best talents. After this successful season there were many rumours that Dost would be transferred to Ajax. These rumours didn't eventuate because he signed for SC Heerenveen on 4 February 2010 on the advice of agent Henk Nienhuis.

SC Heerenveen[]

On 18 May 2010, Dost was signed by SC Heerenveen. The 20-year-old arrived from Heracles Almelo for a transfer fee of around €3.2 million, on a five-year-deal.[2] In his first season with the Heerenveen, he finished as the club's top scorer with 13 league goals.[3]

On 10 December 2011, Dost scored all five goals in Heerenveen's 5–0 win away to SBV Excelsior,[4] taking his total to 14 goals in 16 Eredivisie games.[5] He finished as the topscorer in the Eredivisie with 32 league goals in 34 matches.[6]

VfL Wolfsburg[]

Dost joined German club VfL Wolfsburg in June 2012.[7][8] He made his Bundesliga debut on 25 August 2012, scoring the winner away against VfB Stuttgart.[9] Dost started the 2014–15 season as Wolfsburg's third choice striker[6] and made his European debut[10] in a 4–2 win against FC Krasnodar in the Europa League.[11] In February 2014 Dost scored four goals, away from home against Bayer Leverkusen in a 5–4 win,[12] his first hat-trick for the club in a run of scoring nine goals in 10 Bundesliga matches. Five days later he scored his first goals in a UEFA competition, scoring both in a 2–0 win against Sporting CP in the first knockout round of the Europa League.[13]

Wolfsburg reached the final of the 2015 DFB-Pokal final. Dost headed in the final goal from an Ivan Perišić cross as Wolfsburg won 3–1 over Borussia Dortmund at the Olympiastadion.[14]

Sporting CP[]

In August 2016, Portuguese club Sporting CP signed Dost for a club record €10 million,[15] potentially rising to €12 million, and a buyout clause of €60 million.[16] He made his debut on 10 September at home to Moreirense F.C., concluding a 3–0 win;[17] thirteen days later he scored for the third successive game, netting twice in a 4–2 victory over G.D. Estoril Praia again at the Estádio José Alvalade.[18]

Dost scored all of Sporting's goals on 11 March 2017 as they won 4–1 at C.D. Tondela; two were penalties, of which he later missed another.[19] The league named him Player of the Month for March, with six goals in three games.[20] On 9 April, he scored another hat-trick in a 4–0 home win over Boavista FC,[21] and three weeks later another treble won the game 3–2 at S.C. Braga.[22] He ended the season on 21 May with his fourth hat-trick of the campaign in a 4–1 home win over G.D. Chaves.[23] With 34 league goals in 31 games, he was awarded the Bola de Prata as top scorer.[24]

Dost scored another hat-trick against Chaves on 22 October 2017, in a 5–1 home win.[25] On 1 December, he scored the only goal of a win over Lisbon neighbours C.F. Os Belenenses, taking him to 50 goals in 62 games across all competitions for the Lions.[26] He scored another hat-trick on 7 January 2018 in a 5–0 home win over C.S. Marítimo[27] and added another in a 3–0 win over C.D. Aves a week later.[28] On 27 January, he scored two penalties – one to equalise in a 1–1 draw and the other in the penalty shootout – as Sporting won the 2018 Taça da Liga Final against Vitória F.C. at the Estádio Municipal de Braga.[29]

In April 2018, Dost ended a run of 45 first time finishes when he took a touch before scoring in a Sporting win against Belenenses.[30] Later, on 15 May, he and several of his teammates, including coaches, were injured following an attack by around 50 supporters of Sporting at the club's training ground after the team finished third in the league and missed out on the UEFA Champions League qualification.[31][32][33] Despite the attack, he and the rest of the team agreed to play in the Portuguese Cup final scheduled for the following weekend,[34] losing 2–1 to Aves. Days later, he terminated his contract with Sporting. However, after the dismissal of Bruno de Carvalho as club president, Dost signed an improved contract.[35]

Dost was voted the Player of the Month and Striker of the Month for October/November 2018, with three goals in three games.[36] In the 2019 Taça da Liga Final against FC Porto on 26 January, he scored a last-minute penalty to seal a 1–1 draw and send the game to extra time; he scored again in the penalty shootout as his club retained the title.[37] On 25 May in the 2019 Taça de Portugal Final against the same opponents, he scored an extra-time goal and missed in the penalty shootout, but his team still won.[38]

Eintracht Frankfurt[]

On 26 August 2019, Dost returned to the Bundesliga, signing a three-year contract at Eintracht Frankfurt.[39] He arrived to replace departed strikers Luka Jović and Sébastien Haller, on a fee reported as €7 million.[40] He scored on his debut six days later, a 2–1 victory over Fortuna Düsseldorf, having come on at half time for Dejan Joveljić.[41]

Dost arrived at a club which had lost Jović, Haller and Ante Rebić in high-profile transfers, but combined well with Portuguese attacking duo André Silva and Gonçalo Paciência during his one full season.[42]

Club Brugge[]

On 24 December 2020, Dost agreed to join Belgian First Division A club Club Brugge.[43] He made his debut on 10 January away to Sint-Truidense V.V., scoring the opening goal of a 2–1 win.[44] He ended his first half-season as league champion.[45]

International career[]

In August 2012, he was called up by new manager Louis van Gaal for a friendly match in the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels against Belgium but did not feature.[46] He returned to the squad in March 2015 after a spell of good form for Wolfsburg, being named in Guus Hiddink's squad for a European qualifier against Turkey, and a friendly against Spain.[47] He made his debut in the first match on 28 March at the Amsterdam ArenA, replacing defensive midfielder Nigel de Jong after 63 minutes as the Netherlands equalised for a 1–1 draw.[48] On 13 November, away to Wales at the Cardiff City Stadium, he headed his first international goal to open a 3–2 win.[49]

In April 2018 Dost announced his retirement from international football at the age of 28, saying that he had considered it for some time due to a lack of success with the national team.[50]

Personal life[]

Dost is in a relationship with Annefleur de Leeuw, a Dutch cyclist who competes for Sporting.[51] Their son was born in July 2018.[52]
