Club career

Ajax

On 6 June 2012, Menig signed a three-year contract with Ajax, tying him down to the club until 30 June 2015.[1] On 11 August 2014, he marked his debut for the reserves team Jong Ajax with two goals in an Eerste Divisie match against Telstar.[4] He made his first team debut in the KNVB Cup in the first official Amsterdam derby to be contested since 1983, scoring on his debut against JOS Watergraafsmeer in the Olympic Stadium. The match ended in a 9–0 victory for Ajax, with Menig scoring in the 70th minute of the match.[5] In October 2014, Menig extended his contract with Ajax until 2019.[6] He made his league debut for the clubs' first team on 6 December 2014, coming on as a 76th-minute substitute in the 5–0 win at home against Willem II.[7]

Nantes

On 31 August 2017, it was announced that Menig had transferred to the French Ligue 1 side FC Nantes, who in turn immediately loaned him out to EFL League One Oldham Athletic on a season long loan spell.[8][9]

Menig was loaned out once again, this time to his former club PEC Zwolle, for the rest of the season.[10]

Twente

On 9 September 2019, he returned to the Netherlands, signing a 2-year contract with 1-year extension option with Twente.[11]
