In Sydney, Kamiran is no longer just Kamiran Yousif, but is called ‘The Dutchy’ by friends and family. And that obsession with Orange has lasted almost his entire life. “When I was little and opened my eyes, I started watching Dutch football matches,” he says.
Tattoo of the KNVB logo
Kamiran is known as ‘Cameron van Oranje’ on Facebook, which is full of photos of him in orange shirts, his Dutch football icons and the famous slogan: ‘Hup Holland Hup’. In addition, the Australian has a huge tattoo of the KNVB logo, which covers the right half of his stomach.
Last June he was still in the Netherlands and attended several football tournaments. “I love Holland,” he says. “Especially the people, everyone is very friendly.” Last year he was also in Europe for football.
