Career

edit

Born in Campinas, São Paulo, Lindsay began her career with hometown side Ponte Preta. She subsequently represented Veranópolis before playing in Portugal, Spain and France.[3] In the latter country, she played for AFC Compiègne's B-team and Le Puy before retiring.[4]

After retiring, Lindsay worked at Lyon's youth sides before coaching in Dubai and in the United States.[3] She moved to men's football in 2016, working with the under-14 side of Racing FC Union Luxembourg, before becoming the manager of ninth level side Terville.[5]

After taking Terville to the Régional 3, Lindsay left the club to become Simone Jatobá's assistant at the Brazil women's national under-17 team. On 2 January 2021, she was named head coach of Ferroviária.[6]

Lindsay led the Guerreiras Grenás to the 2021 Copa Libertadores Femenina title, becoming the first women to win the trophy as head coach.[7] On 9 September, however, she resigned after having altercations with some players of the squad,[8] she took over Atlético Mineiro on 6 October.[9]

Lindsay was dismissed by Galo on 28 March 2023,[10] and returned to the Brazilian Football Confederation in July, again as Jatobá's assistant in the under-15 and under-17 squads.[11] On 5 January 2024, she was announced as head coach of Bahia,[12] but left on 7 August, after winning the year's Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino Série A2, to take over Al-Ittihad.[13]
