Career

Having joined the youth academy of FC Volendam in 2017, he signed his first professional contract with the club in April 2021, lasting for three years.[2] He scored on his debut for the club on 25 April 2021 at the age of 16 years and 150 days, making him the youngest player to score during his professional debut in Dutch football since Henk Vos in 1984.[1][3]

On 1 February 2024, Zeefuik signed a five-and-a-half-year contract with AZ.[4].

The loan deal included a buy-option.[5]
