Daryl van Mieghem (born 5 December 1989) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Eerste Divisie club ADO Den Haag.
[4] Having mostly appeared as a substitute during his two seasons at Heracles, Van Mieghem signed a one-year contract with Eerste Divisie club Telstar on 3 July 2013.
[11][12] A few days later, he made his league debut on the first matchday in a 1–1 away draw against Roda JC Kerkrade, coming on as a substitute in the 79th minute for Brahim Darri.
[14] He failed to impress during his second stint with Heracles, and struggled to win a permanent starting spot on the wing with Darri, Jaroslav Navrátil and Brandley Kuwas being the preferred options by manager John Stegeman.
[16][17] Van Mieghem made 12 total appearances for Heracles, in which he scored two goals, before he was sent on loan to second-tier Eerste Divisie club De Graafschap for six months in January 2017.
[18] Upon the move, general director of Heracles, Nico-Jan Hoogma, stated: "Daryl has to play weekly at his age and that is possible at De Graafschap.
[20] On 3 March, he scored his first goal in a 2–1 win over NAC Breda after an assist by Bryan Smeets after having come on as a second-half substitute for Anthony van den Hurk.
[27] In the Eredivisie, Van Mieghem was initially a starter, but lost his place in the lineup during the second half of the season to Furdjel Narsingh and upcoming youth player Delano Burgzorg.
[36] He immediately scored in his club's return to the top tier, slotting home after being assisted by Derry Murkin in a 2–2 draw against Groningen on 7 August 2022.
[40][41] On 20 October, he orchestrated an impressive ADO comeback by scoring just before the final whistle, overturning a 2–0 deficit into a remarkable 3–2 victory against Emmen.
[43] Nicknamed Mipmip in his youth by coach Cor ten Bosch in reference to the Road Runner character of the Looney Tunes, Van Mieghem is known for his pace and dribbling skills.
