Santi Kolk, Dutch footballer
Santiago Torti "Santi" Kolk (born 2 October 1981) is a Dutch former professional footballer. He currently works as an agent. He mostly played as a forward during his career.
Kolk emerged as a talent from the ADO Den Haag academy in 1999, scoring in his senior debut. He signed with Heerenveen the following year, where he made his European debut, but soon saw himself loaned out to second tier clubs. After a stint with Feyenoord, where he made no appearances, he returned to ADO where he experienced a breakout season, scoring 12 goals in 30 games which facilitated a move to Vitesse. Three successful seasons prompted him to join German 2. Bundesliga club Union Berlin. Injuries hindered him during his time there, and he retired as part of ADO in November 2013.
After his retirement, Kolk has worked as an agent for Juzzt Football, representing Denzel Dumfries among others.
