Waterford FC is delighted to confirm full-back Benny Couto has extended his stay at the Blues, signing a new contract ahead of the 2027 League of Ireland campaign.
The 23 year-old left-sided player joined the Blues last December from Cork City, as he quickly grew into his role as a left wing-back in our defensive back five.
Couto’s form in the second-half of the season saw him notch an impressive 12 assists – the most in the Men’s Premier Division – whilst also scoring three times in his first year in Blue.
Now back for 2027, Couto joins John Mahon who earlier today also committed his future to the club for 2027 season by signing a contract extension at the club.
Benny Couto’s Player Sponsorship is now available for 2027. To find out more about our Player Sponsorship Packages, contact Waterford FC Commercial Manager Tony Kelly at tony.kelly@waterfordfc.ie.
