Alex Plat (born 4 February 1998) is a Dutch footballer who plays as a midfielder for Eerste Divisie club Volendam.[1]
Career
[edit]Volendam
[edit]Plat started playing football at RKAV Volendam, after which he moved to the youth academy of FC Volendam. He signed his first contract on 30 March 2015, on a deal until 2017 with an option for an additional season.[2] At the end of the 2016–17 season, the option in his contract was triggered and he was extended for one year.[3]
He made his Eerste Divisie debut for Volendam on 20 October 2017 in a game against NEC as a 71st-minute substitute for Luís Pedro.[4] He mainly played for the reserve team, Jong Volendam in the Derde Divisie that season, winning promotion to the third-tier Tweede Divisie in May 2019.[5]
On 8 March 2019, Plat signed a new contract with Volendam until 2020.[6] He mainly featured as a starter the following season, making 23 appearances as a starter before the season was abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7][8] On 10 October 2019, he had signed another contract extension keeping him at Volendam until 2022.[9]
NAC Breda
[edit]Plat joined NAC Breda on 1 July 2022 as his contract with Volendam had expired, signing a two-year contract with an option for an additional year.[10] Plat was revealed as captain during the open day of the new season.
Telstar
[edit]On 31 August 2023, Plat signed a one-year contract with Eerste Divisie club Telstar, after his contract with NAC had been terminated by mutual consent earlier that day.[11] He made his debut for the club the following day, replacing Lassana Faye in the 71st minute of a 1–0 league loss to FC Eindhoven.[12][13] In the subsequent match, a 2–1 defeat at home against VVV-Venlo on 9 September, Plat earned his first start for Telstar, solidifying his position as a regular starter since then.[14][15]
Return to Volendam
[edit]On 6 June 2024, Plat returned to Volendam on a three-year contract.[16]
