Club career

Molhoek previously played several years for Dordrecht '90, RKC Waalwijk, AZ, Vitesse and VVV-Venlo. [1] [2] He had emerged as a talented defensive midfielder at RKC, and was signed by AZ in January 2006 on a four-and-a-half year contract in a move, which saw Danny Mathijssen move the other way on loan. [3] His time in Alkmaar was, however, marked by injuries and he struggled to establish himself in the starting lineup. [4] After loans at NAC Breda and Vitesse, he signed a permanent two-and-a-half year deal with the latter on 14 January 2009 with Julian Jenner making the same move. [5]

Molhoek signed his last professional contract with FC Dordrecht in July 2012. [6] On 8 April 2013, Molhoek announced his retirement from professional football, returning to his youth club SHO in his hometown Oud-Beijerland, after the season. Due to a lingering ankle injury, Molhoek was no longer able to continue playing professionally. [7] He would also join the coaching staff of the youth department of Dordrecht. [8] He retired from SHO in early 2015 due to injuries.

International career

Molhoek gained three caps for the Netherlands under-21 team, making his debut on 6 September 2002 in the 0–1 loss to Belarus. [9] He also appeared as team captain of the U21s. [10]

Coaching career

In February 2015, he became assistant coach of the Dordrecht first team. In March 2017, he became a part of the NAC Breda youth department, initially coaching the U17 team. [11] He was promoted to assistant coach of the NAC first team in January 2020 under head coach Peter Hyballa, [12] before stepping down from the position on his own initiative on 10 February, instead choosing to coach the U17 team again. [13] [14] From the 2020–21 season, Molhoek formed a coaching duo together with Michael Dingsdag of the U18 team, after the U19 team of NAC was dissolved. [15]
