Wesley Verhoek (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈwɛs.li vər.ˈɦuk]) (born 25 September 1986 in Leidschendam) is a Dutch footballer. Known as a striker who can also play as a winger on either side of the pitch. Wesley Verhoek is currently playing for Indian Super League club FC Pune City.
He spent most of his professional career at ADO Den Haag at different positions in attack. His younger brother John is also a professional footballer and Wesley played alongside his brother in the last 4 months of his ADO-career, when the latter was loaned out by Stade Rennes to the Hague football club. After 8 years at ADO, Verhoek transferred to FC Twente in the 2012 winter transfer window, but was traded 7 months later to Feyenoord for Jerson Cabral, who went in the opposite direction.
Verhoek's career began when he signed a professional contract with ADO Den Haag, after the winter break in 2004–05 he played his first match in the first team of ADO Den Haag. Verhoek also played for the Dutch youth squad. In August 2011, ADO Den Haag and Nottingham Forest had agreed a fee reported to be £2.5m for Verhoek to join Forest; however Verhoek he pulled out of the deal, reportedly due to home sickness. Verhoek denied this was the case.
At the end of the transfer window in January 2012, Verhoek left ADO Den Haag to sign for FC Twente until July 2014. His time at FC Twente wasn't a big success, so he moved on 31 August 2012 to Feyenoord.
