Jeroen Tesselaar (born 16 January 1989 in Wognum) is a Dutch footballer who plays as a left back. He has previously played for AZ Alkmaar, Telstar, Kilmarnock, St Mirren and De Graafschap.
Tesselaar started his professional career in his native Netherlands with HVV Hollandia at age thirteen before joining AZ Alkmaar. In the 2008–09 season, Tesselaar signed his first professional contract, which will keep him until 2010. He did not make a league appearance for the club, but played on loan for Telstar for three season with AZ players Furdjel Narsingh and Kevin Brands.
At the end of the 2010–11 season, Tesselaar was among eleven players to be released.
After leaving AZ, Tesselaar went on trial with Scottish Premier League club St Mirren. The first time he arrived there, he said about the club, "[I] didn’t know what the group wanted but, after the first week, we saw a little movie of Barcelona and how they press the ball."
On 14 July 2011, Tesselaar would later signed for St Mirren on a one-year deal after making impressive display on trial. Upon joining St Mirren, Tesselaar cited joining the club as "efforts to play total football." He made his debut against Dunfermline at East End Park on 25 July. On 20 August, he assisted both St Mirren goals for Steven Thomson, who scored both goals in a 2–1 victory at Easter Road against Hibernian.
