Christophe Kinet (born 15 May 1979) is a Belgian former footballer who played as a midfielder. He played in the Belgian, British, French and Dutch league for, among others Millwall F.C., Sparta Rotterdam, RC Strasbourg, FC Brussels and RFC Liège.
Career
Born in Huy, Belgium, Kinet started his youth training at R.S.C. Anderlecht. He quit Anderlecht for studies.[citation needed]
He joined Millwall F.C. in 2000, then playing in the second league and left Millwall again in 2002, only to be brought back shortly afterwards.[1] One of his most memorable moments at Millwall was scoring a hat-trick against Northampton in the Football League Trophy.[2]
In the 2004–05 winter transfer window Kinet transferred from FC Brussels to Sparta Rotterdam. During the 2005–06 season, he transferred to then third division club RFC de Liege, after Roeselare expressed initial interest.[3]
Personal life
Kinet left Millwall because his then-girlfriend was expecting a baby. Kinet returned to Belgium and became the father of a son, named Henrick.[citation needed]
