Vincent van den Berg (born January 19 1989, Schiedam) is a Dutch footballer, who currently plays for Dutch club FC Zwolle on loan from English club Arsenal. He can play as a midfielder, winger or striker.[1]

Van den Berg played as a youth for SC Heerenveen, moving to Arsenal aged 17 in mid 2006. He has played for both Arsenal's Academy (U18) and Reserve teams, but has only played in pre-season friendlies for the first team, most notably as a substitute in Dennis Bergkamp's testimonial match.[1]

Van den Berg has played for the Netherlands U17 team, and was a member of the side that reached third place in the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Peru in 2005.[1]

On January 7 2008 Arsenal officially confirmed he would go on loan to Go Ahead Eagles for the second half of the 2007-08 season.[2] He made his debut in a friendly match against Samsunspor, during which he was injured and had to be substituted after 25 minutes.[3] After recovering, he went on to play four games for Go Ahead, but did not score any goals.[4].

On 12 August 2008, van den Berg joined FC Zwolle on loan, for the 2008-09 season. As of 25 January 2009 he has not played for the first-team, due to injuries.

With his Arsenal contract due to expire in the summer of 2009, he was offered a trial with Sparta Rotterdam back in Holland. Unfortunately, the injury curse struck again as his opportunity to impress lasted just 15minutes of a match against NEC's youth team. He pulled up & was subbed off with a hamstring injury. It looks to have ended any hopes of Sparta taking their interest any further.
