Nuno André da Silva Coelho (Portuguese: ; born 7 January 1986) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for G.D. Chaves as a central defender.
Born in Penafiel, Coelho reached FC Porto from northern neighbours F.C. Penafiel aged 18, and spent his first professional months with the reserve side, being loaned shortly after to F.C. Maia in the second division. Subsequently, he spent the following three seasons in the same predicament – during 2007–08 he played for Portimonense S.C. alongside namesake Nuno Miguel Coelho, also in the second level.
On 24 August 2008, Coelho made his Primeira Liga debut with C.F. Estrela da Amadora, playing 90 minutes in a 1–0 home win against Académica de Coimbra. In July 2009, he returned to Porto following the retirement of veteran Pedro Emanuel, appearing only once during the league campaign, the 4–1 win at U.D. Leiria in the last matchday (adding four Taça da Liga games and the first half of the 0–5 away loss against Arsenal for the UEFA Champions League round-of-16 second leg).
On 4 July 2010, Coelho signed a four-year contract with Sporting Clube de Portugal for €1million, as part of the deal that sent João Moutinho in the opposite direction. The northerners retained 50% of the player's rights. His first official game came on 13 August in a 0–1 loss at F.C. Paços de Ferreira; on the 26th he scored a rare goal, shooting from 40 metres as the Lions defeated Brøndby IF 3–0 after losing 0–2 at home, thus qualifying for the UEFA Europa League's group stage.
After the end of 2010–11 – where he was used sparingly, often not being selected for matches even when healthy – on 7 June 2011, Coelho was sold to S.C. Braga as an installment deduction on the deals of João Pereira and Evaldo Fabiano transfers, agreeing to a four-year deal. His three-year spell in Minho was marred by several injury problems.
On 5 July 2014, Coelho joined Balıkesirspor from Turkey for three seasons. On 26 January 2016, after several months without a club, he moved to the Major League Soccer with Sporting Kansas City, scoring from 30 yards in his debut in a 1–0 away win against the Seattle Sounders FC.
International career
During roughly two years, Coelho played for the Portugal under-21 team. On 29 August 2010 he was first called to the senior side, for two UEFA Euro 2012 qualifiers against Cyprus and Norway, but did not make his debut.
