Early career

Born in Amsterdam, Netherlands, David's family moved to Enschede when he was 3 years old. He joined FC Twente youth team at the age of seven and moved through the age groups at the Dutch club.

However, David was placed in the Jong FC Twente squad instead and made his debut against Almere City on 6 February 2015.
