He made his debut in the KNVB Cup in the second round for Almere City against ADO '20, a match which ended in a 4–1 loss in Heemskerk.
Fleetwood Town[edit]
He was released by Fleetwood at the end of the 2017–18 season, after making one appearance as a substitute.[5] He had also been sent on loan at Cambuur before his release.[6][7]
Later career[edit]
Kip returned to Almere City on a two-year contract in June 2018.[8] In September 2020, Kip signed with Super League Greece 2 club Doxa Drama.[9]
