Gino Coutinho

PSV Eindhoven

Coutinho played for SV Real Lunet before he was discovered by PSV. In the 2000–01 season, Coutinho played four times for PSV. During the 2001–02 season, Coutinho failed to make an appearance for PSV, so he was loaned out to Den Bosch for the following campaign. Coutinho has also played for NAC, Vitesse and ADO Den Haag in the Dutch Eredivisie. Only at Den Haag in the 2010/2011 season did he claim a regular place in the starting line-up, mainly because of injury to the first-choice goalkeeper Robert Zwinkels. He left them to join Excelsior in September 2014 and moved to AZ on a free in summer 2015. In 2018, he joined second-tier NEC from AZ.

He was capped by the Netherlands in the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship in Argentina and played 4 games for the Netherlands national under-21 football team.

Coutinho was arrested in 2009 and spent two weeks in prison after over 4,000 cannabis plants were found on his premises. He was sentenced to 240 hours of community service and a six-months suspended prison sentence for cannabis cultivation and money laundering in 2011. Both parties appealed and returned to court. In December 2012, the District Attorney withdrew the appeal and Coutinho was acquitted of all charges.
