Paulo Miranda (footballer, born 1988)
Brazilian footballer
Jonathan Doin (born 16 August 1988), known as Paulo Miranda, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Náutico. Mainly a central defender, he can perform equally as a right back.
He is nicknamed after fellow footballer Paulo Miranda when playing for Iraty, after a coach said that his name "was not suited for a defender".[1]
Paulo Miranda had his contract with Náutico rescinded on 24 May 2023, after having his name included in the 2023 Brazilian football match-fixing scandal.[2] Eight days later, he received a 1,000-day ban from football, aside from being charged a R$ 70,000 fine.[3]
