Dropbox not showing under locations in finder

I am using a MacBook Pro M4 with Sequoia 15.1.1. 

After installing dropbox it put the dropbox folder in 'Macintosh HD/Users/[name]/'. I would like to have it under 'locations' where Onedrive and Google Drive also appear. 

So far I was able to find out that you should place the Dropbox folder under 'Library/CloudStorage'. However I can not find a folder with this name on my Mac. It should however be there because when I check the aliases for Onedrive and Google Drive, it shows the original is located here! 

Can anyone pls help me find this path, or to put Dropbox under Locations any other way?
