Zinho Vanheusden (born 29 July 1999) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Standard Liegi on loan from Italian Serie A club Inter Milan. He also represents the Belgium national football team.
In mid-2015, Vanheusden joined Inter Milan's youth academy after 7 seasons in the Standard Liège youth system. He was promoted to the first team in the last few matches of 2016–17 Serie A; he also appeared as an unused bench for a few matches at the start of 2017–18 Serie A. He also played for the under-19 team as the starting defender, winning 2016–17 Campionato Nazionale Primavera. On 27 September 2017, Vanheusden injured his cruciate ligament in a UEFA Youth League match against FC Dynamo Kyiv, which kept him out of action for 4 months. On 26 January 2018, Vanheusden extended his contract with Inter until June 2022.
On 30 January 2018, Vanheusden joined the Standard Liège until 30 June 2018, with an option to extend for one more year. Vanheusden made his professional debut with Standard Liège in a 1–0 Belgian First Division A playoff win over K.A.A. Gent on 14 April 2018.
On 28 June 2019, Standard Liège signed Vanheusden in a permanent deal for a reported €12.5 million fee, which surpassed Nicolae Stanciu's record as the most expensive purchase of Belgium.
