From street to stadium - Ryan Babel

When Ryan Babel first picked up a football and trod the streets of Amsterdam as a seven-year-old kid, he knew exactly where he was heading.

Ten years later, the skills he perfected on the urban training ground took him all the way to a first team debut in the Dutch Eredivisie -- and paved the way for a multi-million pound transfer to the English Premier League.

Everyone starts on the street. See how Ryan aimed for the next level and took his game to the biggest stages in Europe.
