Club career

[edit]

Utrecht

[edit]

TroupĆ©e is a youth exponent from Utrecht. He made his Eredivisie debut on 17 May 2015 as a 62nd-minute substitute for Jelle de Lange against Vitesse.[3] He became a starter in the 2016–17 season under head coach Erik ten Hag, as Utrecht finished the season fourth in the league and later qualifying for the UEFA Europa League after winning the play-offs. TroupĆ©e finished the season by winning the "David Di Tommaso Trophy" for best player of the year at Utrecht.[4]

On 28 August 2018, he joined ADO Den Haag on a season-long loan, after losing his place in the starting lineup of Utrecht.[5] He returned to Utrecht for the 2019–20 season, but was mainly a backup to Sean Klaiber in the right-back position, which meant that he was sent on a six-month loan to Twente in January 2020.[6] In a spring season, which was suspended due to the effects of COVID-19 pandemic, TroupĆ©e made 8 appearances for Twente.[7]

TroupĆ©e started the 2020–21 season as a backup to Mark van der Maarel in the right-back position for Utrecht.[8]

TOP Oss

[edit]

On 12 October 2023, TroupĆ©e signed a one-year deal with Eerste Divisie club TOP Oss.[13][14] He made his debut for the club on 20 October, starting in a 3–0 away loss to Jong AZ.[15]

Željezničar

International career

[edit]

TroupƩe is Netherlands-born to a Dutch father and CuraƧaoan mother, and a former youth international for the Netherlands.[18]

In March 2023, he received his first call-up to the CuraƧao senior national team for the Nations League match against Canada and a friendly against Argentina.[19] On 28 March 2023, TroupĆ©e earned his first cap in a 7–0 loss against the latter, coming on as a substitute during the second half.[20]
