Welcome to the official website of John Achterberg, professional goalkeeping coach and former professional goalkeeper.
This website is designed to give goalkeepers and fans information about John's career in both playing and coaching.
John had a successful playing career as a professional goalkeeper, playing more than 400 matches in a career spanning 16 years. After enjoying his testimonial season at English club Tranmere Rovers in 2008/2009, he retired from playing and made the switch to European giants Liverpool as a goalkeeping coach.
Contractual obligations at Liverpool meant he was unable to continue his goalkeeping academy, but John remains passionate about the development of young goalkeepers.
