Danilho Raimundo Doekhi (born 30 June 1998) is a Dutch professional football player, who currently plays for Vitesse as a centre back.[1]
Club career
Doekhi was transferred to the AFC Ajax youth program in July 2016, but is a product of the Excelsior youth system. He made his Eredivisie debut with the latter on 6 March 2016 in a game against AZ. He replaced Stanley Elbers in the 81st minute, in a 2-0 away loss.[2]
Doekhi made his Jupiler League-debut for Jong Ajax on February 17, 2017, coming on as an injury-time substitute for Léon Bergsma in the 95th minute against Achilles '29, with the game ending in a 3-2 away win.[3]
Doekhi's first league start for Jong Ajax came in the first game of the new season, a 2-1 away win against SC Cambuur.[4] It was followed up with two further starts against Fortuna Sittard and Jong PSV, before alternating between the bench and the starting line-up for much of September and October. After coming on as a sub against Go Ahead Eagles, Doekhi then entered a period of consistent starts for Jong Ajax, making 16 out of a possible 17 appearances in the starting line-up, lasting the full 90 minutes in 14 of them.
On 4 July 2018, Doekhi agreed to join fellow Eredivisie side, Vitesse on a four-year deal.[5]
Personal life
Born during the 1998 FIFA World Cup match between Argentina and England, his parents named him Raimundo after Brazilian International footballer Raimundo Souza Vieira de Oliveira.[6] He is the nephew of former Dutch international football player Winston Bogarde and is of mixed Dutch and Surinamese descent.[7]
