Tom De Mul (born 4 March 1986) is a Belgian former international footballer who played as a right winger.

Club career

Born in Kapellen, Antwerp, De Mul began his career in K.F.C. Germinal Beerschot, but joined the AFC Ajax youth academy at age 15, like countryman Thomas Vermaelen a year before. He made his first team debut on 25 January 2004 against NEC Nijmegen, but appeared only eight times in the Eredivisie in his first two years combined.

After a solid 2005–06 season (spent on loan) at Vitesse De Mul returned to Amsterdam, and figured prominently during his first full year, starting in 23 of the 28 games he appeared in. In the subsequent summer he signed with Spanish side Sevilla FC for five years,[1] but spent the vast majority of his first seasons barred by Jesús Navas, a club youth product; however, on 16 November 2008, having only played five minutes at Getafe CF, he scored in a 2–0 La Liga away win.[2]

On 15 January 2009 De Mul agreed to be loaned to K.R.C. Genk, thus returning to his country. Seriously injured during the summer he spent the entire 2009–10 and 2011–12 campaigns on the sidelines, eventually leaving the Andalusians on 30 June 2012 after his contract expired.[3][4]
