Ruud Jorge Boffin (born 5 November 1987) is a Belgian former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Born in Sint-Truiden, Boffin began his career with the youth team of Racing Genk, before moving to Dutch team PSV in 2005. Boffin never made a senior appearance for PSV, and began his professional career on loan at FC Eindhoven during the 2007âÂÂ08 season. Boffin moved to MVV Maastricht in 2008, and spent the second half of the 2009âÂÂ10 season on loan at VVV-Venlo. Boffin made a total of 86 league appearances in Dutch football.
Boffin signed for English team West Ham United on 1 September 2010, on a two-year deal, alongside fellow new signing Lars Jacobsen. Boffin signed for an undisclosed nominal fee following a trial for the club, and was announced as cover for Robert Green. Boffin made his West Ham debut on 18 December 2010, in the 1âÂÂ1 Premier League draw against Blackburn Rovers. In April 2012 having found his playing opportunities infrequent due to the form of Robert Green and the signing of Stephen Henderson, Boffin's contract was cancelled by mutual consent. Boffin made one League and two Cup appearances for West Ham.
In May 2012, he signed for Turkish club Eskià Âehirspor. On 25 September 2016, he scored a goal by a direct free-kick from his own half at TFF First League game against ÃÂmraniyespor, which ended 2âÂÂ0.
After having played in the second-tier TFF First League with Eskià Âehirspor, Boffin signed with Süper Lig club Antalyaspor in 2017. In his first season, he had to share his playing time with Ferhat Kaplan, but he soon grew into the starter. In 2021, he reached the final of the Turkish Cup for the second time in his career.
