Career Summary

Spierings, the Dutch midfielder, joins Real Salt Lake ahead of the 2026 season after a productive 2025 campaign in the Danish Superliga with Brøndby IF, where he contributed two goals and one assist while anchoring the center of the pitch. A composed presence in midfield, Spierings is known for his passing range, ability to control tempo, and intelligent positioning. He began his professional career in his native Netherlands with AZ Alkmaar, followed by a standout spell across four seasons at Sparta Rotterdam, helping the club earn promotion and cementing himself as a reliable engine-room figure. After strong performances with RKC Waalwijk and a move to Levski Sofia in Bulgaria, Spierings spent several seasons in France with Toulouse FC — where he featured regularly and was part of the squad that lifted the Ligue 2 title — and had a short stint with RC Lens in Ligue 1 before joining Brøndby. Spierings’ experience across multiple leagues and his technical quality provide RSL with another reliable and leadership-ready midfield option as the club prepares for the upcoming campaign.
