Biography
Jan Gerrit Stoeten Pérez (born 10 April 1986), known as Gerrit, is a Spanish footballer who plays for San Fernando CD as a defensive midfielder.
Football career
Born in Torremolinos, Province of Málaga to a Dutch father and a Spanish mother, Gerrit played the vast majority of his career in his country in Segunda División B or lower, for example spending two years with Málaga CF's reserves. He was relegated from the category in 2007, and met the same fate with Mérida UD at the end of the 2008–09 season.
On 14 January 2010, Gerrit moved abroad and signed a contract with MFK Košice. He scored his first and only goal for the Slovak club on 24 April in a 2–0 home win against FK Senica, and featured regularly throughout the campaign (12 starts, 11 games complete) as the team finished in 11th position, barely avoiding Super Liga relegation.
In the summer, Gerrit returned to Spain and its lower leagues, splitting 2010–11 with AD Cerro de Reyes – again being relegated from the third level – and amateurs Juventud de Torremolinos CF. He continued to appear in the third and fourth levels in the following seasons, representing UD Marbella, Unión Estepona CF and CD El Palo.
On 22 July 2014, Gerrit signed a 1+1 deal with Segunda División side CD Numancia. He made his official debut on 31 August, starting in a 1–2 away loss to Real Betis.
