Henri Antchouet
Quick Facts
Biography
Henri Arnaud Antchouet Rebienot (born 2 August 1979), known as Antchouet, is a Gabonese footballer who plays for French club FC Gobelins.
Nicknamed "The Arrow" due to his agility, the striker spent most of his professional career in Portugal and played in five other countries abroad. From 2007 to 2009 he served a ban due to doping.
Football career
Born in Libreville, Antchouet started his career at the age of 15 in local club FC 105 Libreville. After a quick spell in Cameroon he moved to Portugal, first with Leixões SC (then in the third division), and remained there for the vast majority of the following six years.
Consistent performances for Primeira Liga's C.F. Os Belenenses attracted the attention of Deportivo Alavés in July 2005, but Antchouet left Spain after only a few months, returning to Portugal with Vitória de Guimarães, on loan.
After a loan in Saudi Arabia, Antchouet joined AEL 1964 FC in Greece, in January 2007, still owned by Alavés, and helped the team win the domestic cup, netting the winner against Panathinaikos F.C. just eight minutes from time, as a substitute. On 15 June 2007, however, he was given a two-year ban by the Hellenic Football Federation, after testing positive for cocaine.
In August 2009 Antchouet returned to active and Portugal, signing with second division side G.D. Estoril Praia. After one season, he was due to change clubs – and countries – again, joining FC Universitatea Craiova from Romania in June 2010; however, the deal eventually fell through and he returned to the country he had left, moving to Moreirense F.C. in division two.
In June 2011 Antchouet signed for Indian club Churchill Brothers SC, scoring on his debut against Shillong Lajong F.C. and finding the net against the same rival on 18 December in a 6–0 routing. He finished the season as joint-sixth top scorer, helping his team to the third position in the I-League.
