Career

NAC Breda

Van Schuppen was born in Breda, North Brabant, and began playing football with local clubs Irene '58 and JEKA. [2] [3] He joined the NAC Breda youth academy in 2012 and signed his first professional contract in February 2021. [2]

He made his senior debut on 8 August 2021 in a 2–2 away draw against VVV-Venlo on the opening day of the 2021–22 Eerste Divisie season. Introduced as a substitute in the 79th minute for Pjotr Kestens, he scored the equalising goal in stoppage time. [4] [5] [6] Van Schuppen made 41 appearances during his debut season, scoring six goals as NAC reached the promotion play-offs, where they were eliminated by ADO Den Haag. [7]

In March 2023, it was reported that Van Schuppen was expected to leave the club at the end of the season, with his contract set to expire. The following month, he sustained a serious knee injury during training, sidelining him for the remainder of the calendar year. [8] Despite the injury, he signed a one-year contract extension in June 2023, which included an option for an additional season. [9] He returned to competitive action on 1 March 2024, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–1 home win against Jong Utrecht. [10] [11] At the end of the season, NAC declined to exercise the contract option, and Van Schuppen left the club as a free agent. [12]

Eindhoven

On 9 July 2024, Van Schuppen joined FC Eindhoven on a one-year contract, which included an option for an additional season. [12] By the time the option was exercised, he had registered nine goals and ten assists in 27 appearances. [13]
