Marcel de Jong (born 15 October, 1986 in Newmarket, Ontario) is a Canadian soccer player of Dutch descent.
De Jong plays for Roda JC in the Dutch Eredivisie. His first game for Canada was on April 26, 2004, and has played 13 youth international caps, scoring his only goal in a 4-1 loss against Italy in the World Youth Championship of Soccer. He currently lives in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. On September 26, 2007, Marcel de Jong decided to play for the Canadian national team instead of the Dutch national team, reasoning that he would be more likely to garner a spot with Canada than with the Netherlands.
