Thomas Petrus Johannes Kok (born 15 May 1998) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for 3. Liga club Preußen Münster.[2] Besides the Netherlands, he has played in Norway and Germany.

Career[edit]

Born in Tilburg, Netherlands, Kok started playing football in the youth teams of SC 't Zand, Antwerp, and Willem II.[3] He made his professional debut for Willem II on 14 May 2017, in a 3–1 home loss against Ajax, starting at left-back due to several injuries in the team. In January 2018, he was sent on a six-month loan to Dordrecht for six months, and later the move became permanent.

In September 2020, he joined Norwegian second tier club Jerv, but a broken arm kept him out for most of the season.[4][5] However, he became a key player for Jerv in the following season, reaching promotion to Eliteserien with the club. His contract expired after his second season at the club.[3][6]

In January 2022, Kok signed with German Regionalliga West club Preußen Münster, helping the team secure promotion to the 3. Liga in 2023.[3]
