Born in Angola, Van den Driest grew up in Middelburg and came through the youth systems of Zeelandia Middelburg, JVOZ and NAC Breda.[1] He signed for Eindhoven in June 2013 and made his debut on 2 August 2013 in a 0–0 home draw with VVV-Venlo, coming on for Jasper Waalkens before half-time.[2][3] He made five league appearances that season.[4]

After a spell with the under-23s of Académica de Coimbra in 2015,[5] Van den Driest had brief stints with Académica do Lobito in Angola and with ENAD Polis Chrysochous in Cyprus, before returning to the Netherlands with Achilles Veen in August 2017.[6][7][8][9]

In September 2018 he joined Romanian second-tier side Dacia Unirea Brăila.[10] He scored his only Liga II goal for the club on 14 October 2018, in a 6–1 defeat away to Universitatea Cluj.[11]
