Born in The Hague, Claver is of Surinamese descent. His father is Surinamese and his mother is Dutch.[1] His family lived in Zoetermeer. He was a childhood friend of Omar el Baad, who played with him at Cambuur and suggested he join the club. Whilst with the club the two shared a house in Leeuwarden.
Claver began his career with Haaglandia, and he then spent two years at ADO Den Haag before returning to Haglandia. He also played for the youth teams of Sparta Rotterdam and SC Cambuur.
