Club career

Born in The Hague, Achterberg started playing football at a young age for local side VCS before joining the Ajax youth academy in 1998. Due to issues with transportation, he started playing in the youth academy for hometown club ADO Den Haag after only one season with the Amsterdam club.[2] Achterberg made his professional debut for ADO Den Haag against VVV Venlo.[3]

In June 2011, he was sent on a one year-loan to FC Dordrecht.[4] and later moved to amateur side Scheveningen.

In summer 2014 he left Scheveningen for fellow amateurs Haaglandia but broke his calf in September 2014 to put him out for months.[5]
