Career
Zitman was in the youth academy at Feyenoord before being allowed to leave on a free transfer in March 2022 without making a single senior appearance.[1] Zitman joined up with PEC Zwolle and in October 2022 signed a two and half year professional contract with the club.[2] He made his senior league debut on 7 October, 2022 in a 3–0 defeat against FC Dordrecht.[3] Zitman himself said he was surprised by his fast introduction to the first team and had been expecting to play youth team football for a longer time period after joining.[4]
On 16 August 2023, Zitman signed a two-year contract with an optional third year with TOP Oss.[5]
