Career

Waalkens started his career with Avanti'31. At young age he was scouted by both FC Den Bosch and Willem II. Because of the commuting distance he made the choice for FC Den Bosch. A few years later Willem II was interested again to sign him. This time he made the choice for the PSV Eindhoven youth academy. In his first under-19 year he won the prize for the best player in the competition.[2]

Although PSV wanted to give him a chance in the reserve squad, Waalkens signed a two-year deal (with option) with Willem II. August 9, 2009 he made his professional debut in the awaymatch against FC Utrecht (1–0 loss).

In the summer 2017, Waalkens joined SV Spakenburg. He was loaned out to DOVO for the 2019–20 season.[3]
