Career

PEC Zwolle

Born in Amsterdam, Van Gilst started playing football for FC Aalsmeer before joining AFC's youth academy. [2] In 2021, he signed with the under-21 team of PEC Zwolle. [3]

On 30 April 2022, Van Gilst made his professional debut for PEC's first-team, replacing Chardi Landu in the 69th minute of a 3–0 away loss against Ajax in the Eredivisie. [4] He signed his first professional contract at the end of the season; a one-year deal with an option for an additional season. [5] [6] This remained his only first-team appearance for the club, as he would mainly appear for the under-21s the following season, scoring nine goals and assisting five in 23 appearances. [7] [1]

De Graafschap

On 30 June 2023, Van Gilst signed a one-year contract with an option for an additional season with Eerste Divisie club De Graafschap. [7] His debut for the club was delayed as he suffered a knee injury during training in late July 2023, sidelining him for several months. [8] On 29 September 2023, he eventually made his debut for the Superboeren, replacing Başar Önal in the 81st minute of a 0–0 league draw against Roda JC. [9] [10] He made his first ever start on 20 October, replacing David Flakus Bosilj in attack, after the latter had recently returned from international duty. [8] He played 68 minutes in a 2–1 victory over Groningen that day. [11]

On 22 January 2024, Van Gilst scored his first professional goals—a brace—contributing to a 4–2 win over Jong PSV. [12]
