AZ Alkmaar

Van Aken joined the academy at AZ Alkmaar in 2014 from amateur side Victoria Obdam. By following the route from Victoria Ondam to AZ van Aken was hoping to follow in the footsteps of former Cameroon international Willie Overtoom who also took that pathway.[1] He signed a pro contract with AZ in June 2021 up to the summer of 2023, with the option of an extra season.[2] He made his debut in the Eerste Divisie on 15 April 2022 against ADO Den Haag appearing as a substitute in a 1-0 home defeat.[3] He scored his first league goal on 27 January 2023 away at NAC Breda.[4] In April 2023 he played in the 2022-23 UEFA Youth League final against Hajduk Split as AZ ran out 5-0 winners.[5]

FC Dordrecht

After joining FC Dordrecht under manager Dirk Kuyt in 2025, he made his debut in a 1-0 win over SC Cambuur on 8 August 2025.[6]
