Stefan Postma (born June 10, 1976 in Utrecht, The Netherlands) is a Dutch footballer and goalkeeper who currently plays for ADO Den Haag.
He started his professional career at FC Utrecht before moving to De Graafschap. He was signed by Aston Villa from De Graafschap on May 14, 2002 for 1.5 million pounds, upon Peter Schmeichel's transfer to Manchester City F.C. Postma's debut came unexpectedly in a 0-1 defeat at Southampton on October 21, 2002, following the premature dismissal of Peter Enckelman.
After manager David O'Leary's purchase of Thomas Sørensen, Postma became the number two choice goalkeeper at the club, and he was called upon twice in the 2003/04 season and three times in 2004/05[1].
In his final days at Aston Villa the club and himself were speculated to have been in talks with several other clubs across Europe including Blackburn Rovers, Liverpool, Bayer Leverkusen, Ferencvaros, FC Utrecht and Olympiakos amongst others. However, those moves were turned down by both Aston Villa and Postma himself. Postma eventually went on loan to Wolverhampton Wanderers at the start of the 2005-6 season. In January 2006, he signed a contract to remain at Wolves until the end of the season[2]. It was announced on May 5 that Postma would leave Wolves in the summer, and he returned to the Eredivisie with ADO Den Haag.
In 2005, an English ex-girlfriend of Postma's offered for sale on eBay a tape of their sexual activities, claiming in tabloid articles that these were bizarre and kinky. Postma out bid a British newspaper for the tape, and all was though to be ended. However, in October 2006 the tape was released on a number of Dutch websites, one of which took 40,000 hits in one hour and resultantly fell over. The clip later featured on Dutch national television news coverage, but was critisised due to its perceived hard-core content [1].
