Career

Jansen made his professional debut for Excelsior on 5 August 2011, as he replaced Oost in the 79th minute of the Eredivisie home match against Feyenoord (2–0).

In 2019, he played for Gol Gohar in Iran.[3]

On 25 June 2020, FC Dordrecht confirmed the signing of Jansen on a two-year deal.[4]

In June 2021, it was announced that Jansen had signed with Cypriot First Division club PAEEK.[5]

On 29 December 2021, Honka in Finland announced that they had signed with Jansen on a two-year deal, starting in January 2022.[6] His contract was extended on 1 August 2023, on a deal until the end of 2025.[7] After the 2023 season, Honka was suddenly declared for bankruptcy, and Jansen became a free agent.

On 3 January 2024, a fellow Veikkausliiga club Inter Turku announced the signing of Jansen on a one-year deal, with an option for an additional year.[8] Jansen will reunite with Vesa Vasara, his previous head coach in Honka.
