Club career
editBorn in Wateringen,[2] Duijvestijn began his youth career at SV VELO before moving to the ADO Den Haag academy. After failing to break into the first team, he moved to NEC,[2] where he made his Eerste Divisie debut for on 17 August 2018 in a match against Cambuur, as a 77th-minute substitute for Sven Braken.[3]
In 2019, he returned to his former club ADO Den Haag where he played for the reserve team, Jong ADO, in the fourth-tier Derde Divisie. There, he established himself as a prolific scorer for midfield, among others scoring four goals in a 4–2 win over Gemert.[2] After Alan Pardew took over as new head coach of the ADO first team, Duijvestijn saw his chances of breaking into the first team diminish.[2] After a trial with Quick Boys in May 2020,[4] he eventually moved to Helmond Sport on 30 July 2020 on a one-year deal with the option of one more year.[5]
On 29 June 2021, Duijvestijn signed a three-year contract with Almere City.[6] He made his debut on 9 August in a 1–2 loss to Jong AZ, playing the entire game.[7] Less than two weeks later, in his third game for the club, Duijvestijn scored his first goal in the third minute, but saw his team lose 1–2 to VVV-Venlo.[8]
On 1 February 2024, Duijvestijn moved to Excelsior on a two-and-a-half-year contract.[9]
