Full Back · GO Ahead Eagles · season-by-season, by competition, and every match.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

His best campaign on record is 2021/22 at FC Volendam — Season rating 26, 0 goals and 1 assist in 26 games. 2021/22 was the leap — Season rating up 15 points at FC Volendam. Output has held steady across his last 3 full seasons (19 → 23). The gap to his peak is 3 Season points.
Season-to-season output barely moves — his form has stayed within a tight band (±7 points) across 6 campaigns. Made the jump to a higher division in 2022/23 (Eredivisie) and kept playing — 19 games that season.
