Floor Jolijn Spaan (born 10 May 2003) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a forward for Eredivisie club AZ. She has previously played for VV Alkmaar.
Spaan was born in Broek in Waterland, [2] where she grew up in a family full of football-geared individuals. [3] Spaan herself began playing the sport at the age of 5, first joining SDOB before enjoying a brief spell with RKAV Volendam. [3] [4] She often played on boys teams and also participated in indoor soccer. [4] Spaan then played for SV Kadoelen from 2018 to 2020, where she won a Dutch championship with the club.
In May 2020, she moved to the Telstar reserve team. [4] While Spaan had moved up the ranks of the Dutch football system as a midfielder, she played primarily as a striker with Telstar due to an overabundance of midfielders in the squad. [5] Spaan initially had trouble adapted to the new position, but she soon adjusted well and scored 12 goals in her second season at Telstar. [6]
Spaan joined Eredivisie club VV Alkmaar in 2022. She made her professional debut on 22 September 2022, in an away match versus SC Heerenveen. [2] Despite having ostensibly grown more comfortable with her position on the frontline at Telstar, Spaan had a tough year in front of goal and did not manage to score a goal with her new club. [6] At the end of the season, VV Alkmaar was disbanded and replaced in the Eredivisie by business partners AZ. [7] Spaan had made 14 league appearances for the club. [8]
In June 2023, Spaan chose to continue playing in Alkmaar and signed a two-year contract with AZ. [3] On 8 September 2023, she scored her first professional goal in her debut for AZ. [3] On 18 November, Spaan scored 11 seconds into a match against FC Utrecht; [9] her swift strike set the record for fastest goal scored in the Eredivisie. [10] Spaan continued to show quality in front of the net, tallying 11 goals in her first season at AZ and becoming the team's 2023–24 topscorer. [5] However, the team did not have a highly successful season and only won two games in the first half of the campaign. Spaan directly contributed to both victories, scoring in September 2023 to beat Heerenveen [11] and then in the final match before the league's winter break to help produce an upset against Fortuna Sittard. [12] Spaan also later scored against FC Twente on 23 March 2024, contributing to a 2–2 draw in HZ's first AFAS Stadion match in 12 years. [13]
In her second season at AZ, Spaan scored 5 across 22 games, with an additional goal coming in the KNVB Cup. [14] On June 16, 2025, she signed a one-year extension with the club. [8]
