Ivar Jenner (born 10 January 2004) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Eerste Divisie club Jong Utrecht. Born in the Netherlands, he represents the Indonesia national team.

Jenner played for IJsselstein-based academy side IJFC and Ajax before a move to Utrecht in 2016.[4][5] He signed his first professional contract in May 2021.[5]

Jenner signed a new three-year deal with Utrecht in August 2023.[6]

International career

[edit]

Jenner has represented the Netherlands at under-15 level.[1]

He is also eligible to represent Indonesia, and in October 2022, he travelled with fellow Dutch-Indonesian footballer Justin Hubner to Indonesia to become naturalized, in order to represent the Indonesia national under-20 football team at the 2023 AFC Asian Cup and the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[7]

Although Jenner still holds the Netherlands passport, on 17 November 2022, he played for the Indonesia U-20 in a losing effort, 0–6 against France U-20 in a friendly match in Spain.[8] He also played against Slovakia U-20 two days later, in a 1–2 loss.[9]

On 27 May 2023, Jenner received a called-up for the senior team for the friendly matches against Palestine and Argentina. Ivar made his debut on June 14 2023, against Palestine in a 0–0 draw. On June 19 2023, Ivar made his first start for the senior team, in just his second appearance for them against Argentina in a 0–2 loss.[10]

On 29 August, Jenner received a call up to the under-23 team for the 2024 AFC U-23 Asian Cup qualification. He made his debut for the under-23 team against Chinese Taipei, in a 9–0 win. He would score his first international goal against Turkmenistan a few days later.[11]

Jenner was named in the final squad for the 2023 AFC Asian Cup tournament. He played in all matches and helped the national team reached its first ever knockout stage.

Born in the Netherlands, Jenner is of Indonesian descent. His paternal grandmother was born in East Java.[12]

In an interview he said, "My father's mother or my grandmother was born in Java (Jember). So, my father is half Indonesian and I am a quarter Indonesian. My mother's parents are from Netherlands. So my Dutch side came from my mother".[4]

On 22 May 2023, Jenner officially obtained Indonesian citizenship.[13]
