Career

Vorthoren made his debut in the Eredivisie in the away-match against Feyenoord (0–2 loss) on 1 September 2007. In the home match against NEC Nijmegen (3–0 win) he appeared in the starting line-up for the first time. He finished the season having played 19 Eredivisie games. The following season he played less, due to an injury. Although there had been rumours Vorthoren would play for K.S.V. Roeselare (on loan) for the rest of the season, he stayed with Willem II. He will move to FC Den Bosch at the start of the 2009–10 Eredivisie season.[1]
