Ryan Thomas has built an unusually stable European career for a New Zealander, spending almost his entire professional life at PEC Zwolle — interrupted only by a two-year stint at PSV Eindhoven between 2019 and 2021. A dynamic, driving midfielder with Dutch football deeply embedded in his game, Thomas offers the All Whites technical quality and positional discipline shaped by Eredivisie standards. Now 31, he is one of the more experienced European-based players in the squad and brings a composure in possession that New Zealand's midfield relies on when building through the lines.
