He played the full game.[4] His first Eredivisie match was a November 2016 match against NEC.[5]

On 28 June 2017, Clement moved to Reading from Ajax for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year contract with the EFL Championship club.[6]

On 3 January 2019, Jaap Stam signed Clement for the second time for PEC Zwolle after only featuring for Reading once in the 2018–19 season.[7] In his first game he started and registered an assist as Zwolle beat Feyenoord 3–1.[8]

Clement joined RKC Waalwijk on 5 August 2022, signing a one-year contract.[9]

On 6 May 2023, it was announced that he would be joining Sparta Rotterdam on a two-year deal on 1 July 2023 following the conclusion of his contract with Waalwijk.[10]
