Magreb '90.[19] He made 11 appearances during the remainder of the 2015–16 season.[2]

Achilles '29

On 31 January 2017, Gounet joined Eerste Divisie club Achilles '29 on a contract running until the end of the 2016–17 season.[20] He failed to make an appearance before the end of the season, when the Whiteblacks were relegated after finishing bottom of the Eerste Divisie.[2] He was released when his contract expired.[21]
