Having come through the youth ranks at FC Eindhoven, and later on the famed PSV Eindhoven academy, Jong PSV.[3] Kwaaitaal signed for A-League Men club Adelaide United on a 3-year contract as part of the new relationship between the Reds and PSV.[4] However, as part of the deal, he was immediately loaned back out to his junior club FC Eindhoven until the conclusion of the 2024–25 Eerste Divisie.[5]
