Club career

[edit]De Jong was born in Uitgeest, North Holland, where he started playing football for FC Uitgeest, before joining AZ's youth academy in 2016.[2] In January 2019, at the age of 15, De Jong joined AZ's first team during their winter training camp, where he made his unofficial debut in a friendly against Fenerbahçe.[2][3]
He made his professional debut with Jong AZ in a 1–1 Eerste Divisie draw with SC Telstar on 2 November 2020, replacing Des Kunst in the 84th minute.[4][5]
On 28 July 2022, De Jong made his first-team debut for AZ, coming on as a substitute in the 75th minute of a UEFA Europa Conference League second-round match against Tuzla City. He scored his first goal six minutes later, helping his side to a 4–0 victory.[6]
