Hudson José Coutinho (born 12 July 1972), known as Hudson Coutinho, is a Brazilian football assistant manager.
Born in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Coutinho joined hometown's Figueirense in 2000, as a fitness coach, after a brief spell at Guarani de Palhoça. After nine years at the club – which included being manager for one match as an interim in 2007 – he moved to Náutico.
In July 2012, after another fitness coach experiences at Chapecoense, Marcílio Dias and Hercílio Luz, Coutinho was appointed manager of his previous club Guarani.[1] He achieved promotion with the club in the state league, as champions, but was still sacked on 25 February of the following year.[2]
In March 2013 Coutinho returned to his former side Figueirense, as an assistant manager.[3] On 19 September 2015 he was named interim manager, replacing sacked René Simões.[4]
On 21 September 2015 Coutinho was permanently appointed as manager of Figueira, after a request from the squad.[5]
