Troupée is a youth exponent from FC Utrecht. He made his Eredivisie debut on 17 May 2015 as a 62nd-minute substitute for Jelle de Lange against Vitesse.[2] He became a starter in the 2016–17 season under head coach Erik ten Hag, as Utrecht finished the season fourth in the league and later qualifying for the UEFA Europa League after winning play-offs. Troupée finished the season by winning the "David Di Tommaso Trophy" for best player of the year at Utrecht.[3]
On 28 August 2018, he joined ADO Den Haag on a season-long loan, after losing his place in the starting lineup of Utrecht.[4] He returned to Utrecht for the 2019–20 season, but was mainly a backup to Sean Klaiber in the right back position, which meant that he was sent on a six-month loan to FC Twente in January 2020.[5] In a spring season, which was suspended due to the effects of COVID-19 pandemic, Troupée made 8 appearances for Twente.[6]
Troupée started the 2020–21 season as a backup to Mark van der Maarel at the right back position for Utrecht.[7]
As his contract with Utrecht expired in June 2021, Troupée left the club on a free transfer and signed a one-year contract with Twente.[8] He left the club after one season as his contract expired.[9]
Troupée is Netherlands-born to a Dutch father and Curaçaoan mother, and a former youth international for the Netherlands.[10]
