Jeremain Lens (born November 24, 1987 in Amsterdam ) is a Dutch football player of Surinamese descent.

Player career

society

Jeremain Lens, whose uncle Sigi Lens played as a professional for AZ and Fortuna Sittard in the 1980s , was active in his youth at Spartaan, Ajax and FC Omniworld before he came to AZ in Alkmaar. In the 2005/06 season he made his professional debut for the club, but could not achieve a regular place in the first formation; it stayed with two missions, one of them in the league. In the following season, the striker came as a supplementary player on 14 missions for the red-whites. In the 2007/2008 season AZ loaned him to the league rivals NEC Nijmegen , where he made his breakthrough under coach Mario Been with nine goals in 31 games. After his return to AZ, he came in the championship season under Louis van Gaal only to eight missions, as a foot injury with subsequent surgery threw him back.

In the 2009/10 season he was initially only a substitute for coach Ronald Koeman . But in the Champions League duels with Standard Liège and Arsenal FC , he knew how to convince on the right wing and was used more and more in the second half of the honor division under Dick Advocaat . With a total of twelve goals and seven assists in the league, he became an important player on the team. At the end of March he made a hat trick almost alone for AZ's 3-2 win over Heracles Almelo .

On May 27, 2010 he signed a four-year contract with PSV Eindhoven , which in return let Dirk Marcellis move to Alkmaar . On October 24, 2010 he scored his first double in the PSV jersey in a 10-0 victory over rival Feyenoord Rotterdam .

After two seasons at Dynamo Kiev , Lens moved to AFC Sunderland in England in July 2015 .

Lens spent the 2016/17 season on loan to Turkish first division club Fenerbahçe Istanbul .

For the 2017/2018 season he switched to the Turkish champions Besiktas Istanbul on loan and with a purchase option.

National team

Lens played in the U21 and U23 teams of the Netherlands. However, coach Foppe de Haan decided not to take him to the Olympic Games in Beijing because Lens was too selfish, immature and undisciplined for him.

In June 2009 Lens played for a Surinamese-Dutch selection at the Parbo Beer Cup in Paramaribo . The team, coached by Aron Winter , consisted half of local players and the other half of players of Surinamese origin from the Dutch leagues, so-called Suriprofs , who competed with their own team at the previous edition of the 2007 tournament. The use of professionals - including Edgar Davids as captain of the team - was possible because the tournament was not held under the umbrella of FIFA. The games do not count as official internationals. Lens was used in all three games against French Guiana , Guyana and Antigua and Barbuda ; he scored two goals in a 5-1 win over Guyana.

Before the 2010 World Cup, the Dutch bond coach Bert van Marwijk called Lens to the training camp of the Dutch national team in Hoenderloo and then to the extended 30-man squad for South Africa. For the 23-man squad, however, van Marwijk did not consider Lens. Lens made his debut in the first international match after the World Cup. For the friendly game against Ukraine on August 11, 2010 in Donetsk , van Marwijk did without the World Cup participants. Lens played over 90 minutes and scored the opening goal at 1: 1 in the 73rd minute. Lens played his last international match on June 9, 2017 in a 5-0 win over Luxembourg in Rotterdam.
