Jean-Paul Boëtius (born 22 March 1994) is a Dutch footballer who plays as a winger for Feyenoord in the Eredivisie.
Boëtius made his debut for Feyenoord in De Klassieker, the main football rivalry in The Netherlands, at home against long-time rivals Ajax on October 28, 2012. Having never made the bench before, Boëtius was a shock addition in the starting line-up and ended up scoring the equalizer in a game that ended in a 2–2 draw to cap off a positive debut performance.
On 6 March 2013, Boëtius was called up for the preliminary squad of the Dutch national team for the first time, aged only 18. One year later on 5 March 2014 he made his debut for the national team in an exhibition against France in Paris.
Club career

He quickly became a starter for the Rotterdam-based club as a left winger. In his first season in the Eredivisie, Boëtius played in 20 league games, scoring 4 goals and delivering 2 assists. Feyenoord finished the 2012–13 season on 3rd position and secured a spot in the Europa League play-off's for the next season. However, Boëtius' season was ended prematurely after suffering a knee injury during a training session in April.
Because of the knee injury, Boëtius missed the beginning of the 2013–14 season. He made his season debut on 15 September 2013 coming off the bench in the 62nd minute against NEC Nijmegen. Just five minutes after entering the pitch Boëtius scored a goal giving his team a 2–1 lead. During the season Boëtius scored 10 goals in 29 appearances. He finished 3rd among the league's assists leaders with a total of 9 assists. Feyenoord ended the season on the second place only behind Ajax, earning a spot in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round.

Boëtius was called up to the Dutch preliminary squad for the FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil. However, he was omitted in coach Louis van Gaal's final selection.[1]
Personal life
