**Jan Linssen** (19 January 1913 – 2 November 1995) was a Dutch footballer who was active as a forward. Linssen played his whole career at [Feijenoord](/source/Feyenoord_Rotterdam) and is known as the player who has never made a single foul. The only referee that fouled him during a match was [Dirk Nijs](/source/Dirk_Nijs) who did this as a joke and to become the only referee that ever fouled Linssen. Linssen played once for the [Netherlands national football team](/source/Netherlands_national_football_team), in 1938 against the [Dutch Indies](/source/Dutch_Indies) and also scored a goal, however the match was not officially recognized as such.
