Club career

Van der Sluys made his professional debut in the Eerste Divisie for TOP Oss on 23 November 2014 in a game against Sparta Rotterdam.[1]

In July 2019, he signed for RKC Waalwijk, who had recently been promoted to the Eredivisie. In the first half of the season he failed to make an appearance, and as a result he returned to TOP Oss in January 2020, where he signed for six months until June 2020.[2]

On 9 July 2020, Van der Sluys signed for Eerste Divisie club Helmond Sport on a two-year contract.[3] He made his league debut on 29 August 2020 in a 2–1 win over his former club TOP Oss away at Frans Heesen Stadion.[4] Van der Sluys scored his first goal for Helmond Sport in an Eerste Divisie fixture against Excelsior on 28 March 2021, a 3–0 win.[5][6]

On 23 July 2022, Van der Sluys returned to TOP Oss on a two-year contract.[7] Thirteen months later, he moved abroad for the first time, to Norwegian second-tier club FK Jerv.[8]

Van der Sluys joined Tweede Divisie club De Treffers on 1 February 2024, ending his professional career.[9]
