Lechkar came through the youth systems of AFC and Almere City, where he was converted from a midfielder to a left-back.[1] He made his senior debut with Argon in the Eerste Klasse, joined FC Aalsmeer for the 2022–23 season in the Tweede Klasse,[2] and moved to TEC in the Derde Divisie for the 2023–24 season.[3][4] He made his competitive debut on 12 August 2023, starting in TEC's KNVB Cup preliminary-round tie against DOVO, which TEC won on penalties.[5][6] He started again on his league debut eight days later, a 2–0 home defeat to Gemert on the opening matchday. He scored his first goal for the club in the reverse fixture on 14 January 2024, a 4–0 away win.[7][8] He scored four goals in 39 appearances in his only season with TEC, helping the club reach the promotion play-offs for the Tweede Divisie. TEC were eliminated by SC Genemuiden over two legs, with Lechkar starting both matches.[9][10]
