Tjaronn Inteff Chefren Chery (born 4 June 1988) is a Dutch footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Queens Park Rangers.

Club career

Before signing a youth contract with FC Twente, Chery played for amateur side U.D.I. Enschede. A fantastic season with the A-Juniors (highest youth level) culminated in winning the national championship in 2007.[2] That year, he played 21 matches and scored 2 goals. Chery was mainly used as a substitute, playing at the same position as Qays Shayesteh.[3]

On 16 January 2008, first team coach Fred Rutten picked Chery for the main squad. On 5 May 2008, Chery won the national reserves championship, captaining his team to the victory. That meant that he received the winner's plate.[4]

On 26 October 2008, Chery made his professional debut in the Eredivisie, substituting Marko Arnautović in extra time in the away match against Vitesse Arnhem. At the time he entered the pitch, the score was 0–2 to Twente which the match also ended.[5]

On 20 July 2015, Chery moved from FC Groningen to Queens Park Rangers for an undisclosed fee on a three-year deal.[6] Chery made his competitive QPR debut in the first game of the 2015–16 Championship Season which resulted in a 2–0 defeat against Charlton Athletic, he started the game and was replaced by Jay Emmanuel-Thomas on the 71st minute.[7] He scored his first goals for the club when he scored twice against Rotherham United on 22 August 2015.[8]

International career

In May 2015 Chery was called up to the senior Netherlands squad.[9]
