Club career
Born in Walvis Bay, de Gouveia joined Cape Town Spurs from city rivals Vasco da Gama in 1990. He sustained a career-threatening injury in a car crash soon, but after recovering after two years he joined hometown club Maritimo and then Blue Waters with whom he won the league in 1996.[2] He quit playing football in 1998 and became an avid supporter of developing youth football in Namibia.[3]
International career
Nicknamed Jingles,[4] de Gouveia competed for the Namibia national football team from 1996–1998, including the 1998 African Cup of Nations.[5] He made his debut for the Brave Warriors in an October 1992 World Cup qualification match against Madagascar. He was one of only two white players to captain the national team[2] and totaled 1 goal in 31 games for them.[6]
Personal life
De Gouveia works as general manager of Cavema Fishing and has two children with his wife Angelene. With former national teammate Eliphas Shivute he formed the Playtime Trust Namibia, which develops young football and cricket players.[4]
