The national coach spoke with NEC&#8217;s 38-year-old captain, but the attacking midfielder kept the door closed.<br \/>\nChery had previously retired as a Suriname international, but made a comeback last year with the aim of qualifying for the World Cup in Canada, the United States and Mexico. When Suriname was eliminated by Bolivia in the play-offs, Chery brought his international career to an end.<br \/>\nFraser, who took over as national coach from Henk ten Cate, nevertheless tried to persuade Chery. &#8216;He still called me, because he really wanted to have me involved,&#8217; Chery said after NEC-Go Ahead Eagles.<br \/>\n&#8216;I spoke with him last week, but important weeks are coming up with NEC. For me, it is important to be here, so I want to focus on staying fit and doing everything for NEC.&#8217; So the door is not even slightly ajar. &#8216;No, I am done.&#8217;<br \/>\nThe international break comes at the right time for NEC after tough weeks with two matches a week on a regular basis. &#8216;Some of the guys are going to play great matches with their country. We are off for a while now and it is important to clear our heads. To do something with family or friends and relax. After that, we will come back refreshed, go on a training camp and I have every confidence that things will work out.&#8217;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National coach Henk Fraser tried to persuade Tjaronn Chery to return to Suriname, but the NEC captain remains focused on his club and has definitively ended his international career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":189984,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_29234516172805655_1309923202201307":"","facebook_29234516172805655_1158244960706604":"","facebook_29234516172805655_1093738170500407":"","facebook_29234516172805655_108923581283702":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[20286],"tags":[20287,20644,20643],"class_list":["post-189983","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sport","tag-football","tag-natio","tag-sport"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","pp_force_visibility":null,"pp_subpost_visibility":null,"pp_inherited_force_visibility":null,"pp_inherited_subpost_visibility":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189983","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=189983"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189983\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":190029,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189983\/revisions\/190029"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/189984"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=189983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=189983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=189983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
