Club Career

Club(s) Joined Nottingham Forest FC as a nine year-old, after being scouted locally. He signed professional forms on 19 February 2000, and was shortly after given a £4 million transfer tag, with clubs such as Newcastle United FC, Leeds United AFC and Aston Villa FC showing interest. Went onto play 29 league matches, he scored four times. His form saw him sign for Newcastle United FC on 5 February 2002 for £5 million, he played 110 Premier League matches, in which he scored nine goals. On 31 August 2005, Jenas signed for Tottenham Hotspur FC for £7 million. He joined Aston Villa FC on 31 August 2011 on a season-long loan. But niggling injuries and a serious achilles tear limited his Premier League appearances to three. He made 155 Premier League appearances for Spurs, scoring 21 times, before Jenas signed on loan with Nottingham Forest in September 2012 (six championship appearances, one goal). Then Jenas signed for Queen's Park Rangers FC on 31 January 2013. A knee injury curtailed his career in April 2014, and he announced his retirement from the game on 7 January 2016.
Club honours Football League Cup winners 2007-08;
Individual honours PFA Young Player of the Year 2003.
Distinctions His 5 million move from Nottingham Forest FC to Newcastle United FC made it the second most expensive transfer involving a teenager at the time.
