Early career

As part of the Feyenoord youth academy, he stated in July 2015 that "Ajax was in his heart", and that he would have preferred to play in their youth academy; a controversial comment as the club is considered to be Feyenoord's fierce rivals. [4] He afterwards played in the youth academy of ADO Den Haag, [5] before leaving in 2018. Guezen then played shortly for Team VVCS in the summer break, a football team consisting of free agent players. [6] His performances there earned him a contract at SC Cambuur, where he appeared at their under-21 team. [7] [8]

Zagłębie Sosnowiec

On 4 March 2023, it was announced that Guezen had joined Polish I liga club Zagłębie Sosnowiec on a one-year contract.

[15] [16] On 12 March, he earned his first starting position for Sosnowiec, playing 56 minutes of a 1–0 home defeat against Skra Częstochowa. [17] [18] After Zagłębie finished the 2023–24 season in last, [19] Guezen left the club by mutual consent on 10 June 2024. [20]
