He played extensively for Alkmaar's reserves, and was promoted to the senior team in 2009. After a short period on loan at Telstar in the Eerste Divisie in 2010,[1] during which he played four games but found himself marginalized following a change of manager, Copier moved to FC Oss in 2010,[2] playing 3 games and scoring 2 games for the team.

In summer 2014 he joined FC Breukelen from fellow amateurs RKSV Leonidas, in Rotterdam.[3]
