On 14 July 2013, he signed with Eindhoven, who had just appointed Jean-Paul de Jong as new head coach.[4] After two seasons with Eindhoven, Go Ahead Eagles picked him up on a free transfer.[5] After two years in Deventer, Nieveld was once left to look for a new club.[6] At the end of July 2017, the clubless defender was on trial at VVV-Venlo, but he did declined a contract not wanting to serve as a backup behind Nils Röseler and Jerold Promes.[7] In January 2018, Nieveld continued his career at FC Oss.[8]
In February 2019, it was announced that Nieveld had signed with Kozakken Boys in the Tweede Divisie.[9]
