Philip Brittijn (born 9 April 2004) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Eerste Divisie club De Graafschap.

Career

Brittijn was born in Winterswijk, Gelderland, and played youth football for FC Winterswijk, before joining the De Graafschap youth academy in 2014.[2] He progressed through the ranks, and prior to the 2021–22 season, he began training with the first team.[3] In August 2021, he signed his first professional contract with the Doetinchem-based club.[4]

On 10 September 2021, Brittijn made his professional debut, replacing Ted van de Pavert in the 73rd minute of a 3–0 Eerste Divisie loss to Volendam.[5] He scored his first goal two weeks later, on 24 September, against Jong Utrecht. After being subbed in for Hicham Acheffay in the second half, he equalised after receiving a long ball from goalkeeper Hidde Jurjus, securing a late 2–2 draw.[6]

In June 2023, Brittijn's contract was renegotiated and extended until 2025.[7] At that point, he had grown into a key player in midfield for De Graafschap.[8][9]
