Born in Germany, de Meester began his career with the youth team of Hennef 05.[1] In 2014, he then moved to 1. FC Köln and played up to the U17 team. In 2021, he joined the U19 team of Viktoria Köln.[2]

Viktoria Köln

[edit]

In November 2021, de Meester scored on his senior team debut for Viktoria Köln in a 5–1 away win against SSV Bornheim in the second round of the 2021–22 Middle Rhine Cup. He came in as a substitute in the 80th minute, replacing Simon Handle and scored Viktoria's fifth goal of the match four minutes later.[3] In June 2022, de Meester signed his first professional contract until June 2025.[4][5] On 16 September 2023, de Meester made his 3. Liga debut in a 2–1 away defeat against Borussia Dortmund II, coming in as a substitute, replacing Michael Schultz in the 90th minute.[6] In February 2024, de Meester scored his first league goal in a 5–2 home defeat against 1. FC Saarbrücken. He came in as a second-half substitute, replacing Thomas Idel, scoring Viktoria's second goal of the match in the 91st minute.[7][8] Three days later, de Meester scored his second league goal in a comeback win against Sandhausen. He scored Viktoria Köln's equalizing goal in the 64th minute after conceding a goal in the 59th minute.[9][10]

International career

[edit]

De Meester was born in Germany to a Belgian father and a Filipino mother, making him eligible to play for Germany, Belgium or the Philippines at international level.[citation needed]

Philippines

[edit]

In March 2024, de Meester was reportedly one of the players being recruited by head coach Tom Saintfiet and team manager Freddy Gonzalez to play for the Philippines. A month later, de Meester was visited by the Belgian coach himself on one of his scouting trips in Europe.[11]
