Arvid Smit (born 12 December 1980 in Heerhugowaard) is a Dutch footballer who plays for Telstar in the Dutch second division, as a midfielder.

Football career

After impressing with Telstar in the second level, Smit was signed by country giants PSV Eindhoven in 2002, but would appear very rarely officially for his new team, never in the league, going on to serve loans with three different sides in the country, always in the top flight.

In January 2007, still owned by PSV, Smit moved to Portugal's C.S. Marítimo, making his first appearance on the 29th, in the local derby of Madeira against C.D. Nacional.[1] After a good spell - he started in all the league games during the season, completing all but one, the move was made permanent, but he was deemed surplus to requirements shortly after, which prompted a new January move, also in the country, as he joined, on loan, União de Leiria.

Smit returned to his country in the 2008 summer, signing with first-divisioner FC Volendam; after having appeared sparingly throughout the season, he dropped down a level and returned to his first professional club, Telstar.
