Club career

Born in Enschede, Schepers started the 2008–09 season in the youth of SC-Cambuur-Leeuwarden. On 24 February 2009, Schepers signed a three-year deal with the club. [2] He made his debut for Cambuur on 24 April 2009 in a 0–1 defeat against Dordrecht, coming on as a substitute for Sandor van der Heide. [3] He was close to a move to FC Groningen, however the move failed to materialise. [4] On 5 February 2010, he made his first appearance in the starting line-up in a 1–1 draw against AGOVV Apeldoorn. [5] Since then, Schepers established himself in the squad, being in the starting line-up against SBV Excelsior on 22 February 2010 and against RBC Roosendaal on 23 April 2010. [6] [7]

In the 2010 summer transfer window, English Premier League club Everton F.C. tracked Schepers and arranged a trial for him. He was present at the pre-season fixture against Clyde. [8]

On 30 August 2011, Schepers joined Eredivisie side FC Utrecht on a three-year contract with an option to extend for further two years. [9] He returned to his former team Cambuur on a loan deal before the transfer window closed.

In June 2015, after his contract with Cambuur was not extended, Schepers moved to Topklasse side ONS Sneek. His ONS Sneek contract included a release clause allowing him to leave if a professional club would have registered him before 1 September. [10]

In May 2015, it was announced he would return to his youth club Blauw Wit '34. [11]

International career

Schepers was active at the 2009 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship for the Netherlands, playing as a left winger. Schepers was surprised he made the team stating that while he played for Cambuur, the other players all played for big clubs like Ajax, Feyenoord, and Arsenal. [4] In the group stages, Schepers came on as a substitute in the 2–1 victory over Turkey. [12] In the 2–1 semi-final victory over Switzerland, Schepers was in the starting line-up. [13] In the final against hosts Germany, Schepers again came on as a substitute, however they lost the match 1–2 after extra time. [14] [15]

Schepers was also a member of the Dutch squad for the 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Nigeria, although the team failed to progress beyond the group stage. [16] Schepers played two matches at the tournament, coming on as a substitute against Iran and Colombia. [17] [18]
