Roshon Felix Romar Jordan van Eijma (born 6 June 1998) is a professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Eerste Divisie club TOP Oss. Born in the Netherlands, he plays for the Curaçao national team.
Club career[edit]
Roda JC Kerkrade[edit]
He made his Eerste Divisie debut for Roda JC Kerkrade on 28 September 2018 in a game against SC Cambuur.[3]
Preußen Münster[edit]
In September 2020, he moved from Kerkrade to Preußen Münster.[4] He played his first game on 13 December against Rot-Weiß Oberhausen, in which he was sent off with a red card in the 54th minute.[5] In his first season in Germany, Van Eijma played eleven games in the Regionalliga West and won the Westphalian Cup with the club.[6]
On 17 August 2021, his contract was terminated by mutual agreement. Upon his release, sporting director for Preußen Münster, Peter Niemeyer stated: "As nice as it is to have a national player in your own ranks, so great are the difficulties associated with it. For a Regionalliga team that does not plan for international breaks in its schedule, the many national team selections were unfortunately no longer feasible in the end. This was not a satisfactory situation for neither player nor club. We thank Roshon for his commitment and wish him all the best for the future."[7]
TOP Oss[edit]
Ten days after being released by Preußen Münster, Van Eijma signed with Eerste Divisie club TOP Oss.[8] On 9 October, he made his debut as a second-half substitute for Nicolas Abdat in the 2–1 loss to FC Eindhoven away at Jan Louwers Stadion.[9]
International career[edit]
Van Eijma debuted for the Curaçao national team in a 5–0 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification win over Saint Vincent and the Grenadines on 25 March 2021.[10]
