Jarno Janssen (born 19 September 2000) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Regionalliga West club 1. FC Bocholt.
Janssen made his Eerste Divisie debut for FC Eindhoven on 24 August 2018 in a game against Go Ahead Eagles, as a 79th-minute substitute for Charni Ekangamene.[1]
On 27 July 2023, Janssen signed a two-year contract with Regionalliga West club 1. FC Bocholt. Upon signing, new Bocholt manager Dietmar Hirsch expressed his pleasure with the signing: "With Jarno we've gained a defender who is robust and really looks good. He's also left-footed, which we haven't had in our central defense before. At 22, he has gained a lot of experience in the Dutch second division over the past two seasons. We've been looking for another central defender for a long time and we're sure that Jarno can help us right away. You also noticed in the first training sessions that his character suits us very well."[2]
Janssen made his debut for the club on 29 July, the first matchday of the season, starting at centre-back in a 5–2 away victory against Schalke 04 II. However, he fell out with an injury in the first half and was replaced by Florian Mayer.[3] [4]
