Career

Via Diest, Van Goethem arrived at the youth team of Genk, where he was awarded a professional contract in 2002. At Genk, he played only a few matches, most as a substitute and only seldom as a starting player. Eventually he played only 18 matches in almost four seasons. During the winter transfer period of the 2006-07 season, he moved to Belgian Second Division team Mechelen with which he enjoyed promoted back to the highest level of Belgian football. Towards the end of the 2009-10 he was told his contract would not be prolonged and he moved as a free player to OH Leuven during the 2010 summer transfer window, making it his second move to the Second Division. But again, he enjoyed promotion, leading the team to the title during the 2010-11 season. During the first match of the 2011-12 season, he picked up a severe knee injury, causing him to be sidelined for most of the season.[2] At the end of the summer 2015 transfer period, Van Goethem was loaned to Belgian Second Division team Heist.
