Family

Born on 31 January 1997 to his parents, Arnaut Danjuma Groeneveld has the nickname Arnaut. As the third child of the family, Arnaut experienced an unbearable phase of pain in his life when his parents got divorced.

Arnaut was born to his Dutch father, Cees, and his mother, Hauwa, from Nigeria. As we mentioned earlier, his parents divorced early in his childhood, which the new situation caused many problems. After the divorce, Danjuma, his mother, and his siblings were homeless.

Though it was a short period, experiencing it was a painful experience for all of them. With much difficulty, his mother could get a suitable job and cater to the demands. Meanwhile, he spent much of his early life in foster care. 

Due to his parents’ separation, Arnaut, Danjuma, and his siblings have faced a distressing financial crisis, which lasted for a short while. Before things broke out, Arnaut Danjuma family was an average one, but the separation caused the finances to deteriorate.
Bearing the new situation for Arnaut Danjuma’s family was so hard. At the time, Arnaut and his siblings spent nights in the car or at some of their friends’ houses. When Danjuma became 11, he had to leave his foster home. At the time, his family had gained a balance situation, and Danjuma could grow up like other kids from a family with a middle-class base.

Different ethnicity of Arnaut Danjuma’s parents has earned him the boast of owning dual citizenship. Being the child of a Dutch father and a Nigerian mother has led Arnaut Danjuma to have the chance of playing for either country by his choice.

At the moment, he was only a 4-year-old child, which tolerating the situation was so hard for him. Though Danjuma’s parents’ separation had caused much hardship for him, he could use paternal rights from his dad.

Reiner and Lisette, Arnaut’s elder brother and sister, were the two closest characters during Arnaut Danuma early life, which he grew up by spending time with them. Finally, Danjuma found football as a way to flee from the painful ordeal of divorcing his parents. Football was such a great consolation for him which could keep him away from the sad atmosphere in their home.

Although Arnaut and his siblings experienced many difficulties in their early life due to his parents’ problems, there was one good thing about them. The children’s education was a significant issue for the parents, and they did not let anything impact their success negatively.
Thanks to their parents, Danjuma and his elder siblings educated well. His father took him to school and picked him up at closing hours. The young child, who had found football as a way to escape the problems in his life, started to play when he was four and found all aspects of it so attractive.

After a short while, Danjuma joined FC Oss, the youth football academy. Thankfully, it was in the city his father had settled, which abled him to take his son to the institute after school. The situation earned him the opportunity of playing with other kids and get trained at the sports institute.
