Lutsharel Geertruida (born 18 July 2000) is a Dutch professional

defensive midfielder for Eredivisie club Feyenoord and the Netherlands national team.[2][3]

Club career

Geertruida was born in Rotterdam, near Feyenoord home ground De Kuip.[4] He started his footballing career at Overmaas Rotterdam, before moving to Spartaan '20 at age seven. Two years later, he joined Sparta Rotterdam's youth academy, where he played for three years before being signed to Feyenoord's youth setup at Sportcomplex Varkenoord.[5][6]

Geertruida made his professional first team debut on 25 October 2017 in the second round of the KNVB Cup against AVV Swift, coming on as a substitute in the 77th minute for Jerry St. Juste.[7][8]

Throughout the 2018–19 season, Geertruida was consistently part of the first-team squad at Feyenoord but saw limited playing time, making just two substitute appearances in the Eredivisie.[9] He made his debut in the Eredivisie on 23 December 2018, against ADO Den Haag, replacing club legend Robin van Persie in the 79th minute.[10] He also debuted in European competition on 9 August 2018, in a UEFA Europa League qualifier that ended in a 4–0 loss against AS Trenčín.[11]

During the 2019–20 season, Geertruida saw more game time, often coming on as a substitute for regular starter Rick Karsdorp. His first start in the Eredivisie took place on 26 September 2019, in a match against AZ, which ended in a 3–0 loss for Feyenoord.[12]

He scored his first goal in professional football on 27 September 2020, scoring Feyenoord's first goal in a 4–2 win against ADO Den Haag.[13] In August 2021, Geertruida extended his contract with Feyenoord until 2024.[14] On 25 May 2022, he played in the UEFA Conference League final which Feyenoord lost 1–0 to Roma.[15] In the 2022–23 season, he was an integral part of the team which won the Eredivisie title.[16]

International career

Born in the Netherlands, Geertruida is of Curaçaoan descent. He is a youth international for the Netherlands. On 21 March 2021, Geertruida was called up to the Netherlands national under-21 football team for the 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship to replace the ill Jurriën Timber.[17]

He was called up to the preliminary squad for the Curaçao national team for the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[18]

On 17 March 2023, Geertruida received his first call-up to the Netherlands senior national team for the Euro 2024 qualifying matches against France and Gibraltar.[19] He made his debut a week later, being a starter in a 4–0 away loss against France.[20]

Personal life

During his early years at Feyenoord, Geertruida was seldom seen in front of the camera due to his struggle with severe stuttering. As a result, in consultation with the club, he chose not to participate in any interviews.[4][21]
