A few months later, in August 2023, Dijksteel made another move, heading to Cork City in the Irish Premier Division. He made a total of eight first-team appearances in his debut season. In the subsequent season, Dijksteel upped his game considerably, notching up ten first-team appearances and scoring his first goal.
July 2025 saw Dijksteel pack his bags once again, this time for Scottish shores. He signed with St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership for an undisclosed fee, joining the ranks of notable players who have graced the club with their talent. So far, in the ongoing 2025 - 2026 season, Dijksteel has made a single appearance on the pitch for St Mirren.
