Van Veen told the Groningen website, “I see FC Groningen as a beautiful and large club, with fanatical supporters. This club belongs in the Eredivisie and so promotion is the clear assignment. That is what I am here for.”

Van Veen has previously played in the Netherlands with Helmond Sport, Oss and Cambuur but ended up at Motherwell via Scunthorpe United and Northampton Town.
