Rhino Manuel Nicolaas Goutier (born 9 May 2003) is a Filipino professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Philippines Football League club Cebu, on loan from Eerste Divisie club Den Bosch.[2][1] Born in the Netherlands, he is eligible to represent the Philippines internationally.
Goutier was born in the Netherlands to a Dutch father and a Filipina mother.[3] He is eligible to represent the Philippines internationally, due to his mother hailing from the province of Nueva Vizcaya. He first played club football in Brabant, joining the Den Bosch academy at 11 years old.[4]
After joining Den Bosch, Goutier played youth football for the club's U18 and U21 teams.[5] In 2023, he was rewarded with his first professional contract, becoming a first-team player at the Eerste Divisie side.[6][4][7] He would go on to make his only appearance for the club so far on April 2, 2023, in a 2–0 loss to Willem II.[8][9]
In February, Goutier was contacted by coach Mustafa Al-Saffar of Philippines Football League club Dynamic Herb Cebu. Den Bosch announced his loan transfer to the Filipino side in early February, with the player transferring with the prospect of more game time.[10] In March, Cebu formally announced his signing.[11]
