Tscheu La Ling (born 6 January 1956) is a Dutch former professional footballer who played for clubs in the Netherlands, Greece and France. His name has been spelled in various ways throughout his career, but usually as Tscheu La Ling; he was generally uninterested in how it was spelled but revealed in a February 2007 interview that his name was officially Ling Tshen La. In June 2015 he was appointed to the advisory board of Ajax Amsterdam.

Born in The Hague of mixed Chinese and Dutch ancestry, Tscheu began his career with his hometown team Den Haag. He joined Ajax in the 1975–76 season. Ajax won the Eredivisie title in the seasons 1976–77, 1978–79 and 1979–80, but these feats paled in comparison to the European successes during the early 1970s. In December 1981, Johan Cruijff returned to Ajax. The team was built around him, and La Ling lost his place in the starting line-up to Gerald Vanenburg. He moved to Panathinaikos and then Marseille. He spent a year with Ajax's bitter rival Feyenoord for the 1985–86 season and moved back to Den Haag for one season before retiring.

Tscheu played for the Dutch team during qualifying for UEFA Euro 1980. He earned 14 caps for the Netherlands and scored 2 goals from 1977 to 1982.
