Club career

As a child, Steppe played in the Germinal Beerschot youth ranks. However, after a few years, he came around to play for rivals Royal Antwerp FC, returning to Germinal in the 2006–07 season as a free agent.

He debuted on 3 February 2007 against Mons due to the injury of Luciano Da Silva.

The 2007–08 season proved to be his great breakthrough, becoming the first goalie after 6 matchdays. He also won the Belgian Goalkeeper of the Year award.

On the last weekend of the 2008 summer transfer window, he was sold to Heerenveen and [[Silvio .

After years of injuries and competition, Steppe left Heerenveen on a free transfer and he signed with Waasland-Beveren to make a new start in his career.
