# Jeremy van Mullem

Jeremy van Mullem (born 18 March 1999) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Eerste Divisie club Cambuur.

## Career
### Early years

Van Mullem began his youth career at VV Zwaluwen and later moved to Feyenoord's academy, where he signed his first professional contract in 2018.
After one season with Jong Feyenoord, his contract expired in 2019, and he left on a free transfer to SSV Jeddeloh in Germany, competing in Regionalliga Nord. He made his debut for Jeddeloh on 21 July 2019, in a 1–1 draw at home against VfB Oldenburg in the Lower Saxony Cup. As the match ended in a draw, a penalty shootout ensued, resulting in Jeddeloh's elimination. A week later, on 27 July, he played his first league match, a 3–1 loss to VfB Lübeck. Van Mullem would go on to make a total of 21 appearances in the Regionalliga Nord before the league was indefinitely suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

### Sparta Rotterdam

In 2020, Van Mullem joined Jong Sparta Rotterdam on an amateur contract, where he made his first appearance in the Tweede Divisie on 5 September 2020, against Jong Volendam. After six matches, the Tweede Divisie was cancelled due to COVID-19, and Van Mullem did not feature for Jong Sparta again.
Towards the end of the 2020–21 season, he was included in the first-team squad of Sparta Rotterdam for several matches. He made his debut for Sparta in the last game of the regular season, a 2–1 away victory against SC Heerenveen in the Eredivisie, coming on as a substitute for Wouter Burger in the 74th minute. In May 2022, Van Mullem extended his contract with Sparta for two more seasons.

### Cambuur

On 1 September 2023, Van Mullem signed a two-year contract with an option for an additional season with recently relegated Eerste Divisie club Cambuur. He made his competitive debut for the club on 9 September, starting in a 3–1 league win over Den Bosch. On 6 November, he scored his first goal for Cambuur in a dominant 8–1 away victory against TOP Oss; the latter's most significant home defeat ever.
