Club career

[edit | edit source]

Halimatu Ayinde was signed by the American team Western New York Flash on 15 June 2015 from the Nigerian domestic team Delta Queens.[4] She made her debut with a start in the 1–0 loss against the Houston Dash; she was substituted in the 79th minute.[5] After spending a season with the team, during which time she made nine appearances, including five in the starting lineups, she was released on 12 May 2016.[4] She had admitted underperforming in her first season with the Flash, but felt that she had improved in the 2016 preseason, scoring against the A team put forward by the University of Vermont. At the time this affected her selection for the Nigeria women's national football team, with Ayinde not being selected for a match against Senegal.[6]

She joined FC Minsk of the Belarusian Premier League later that year,[7] making her debut in the 3–0 victory over Bobruichanka Bobruisk on 2 September. She was one of three Minsk players to score in the match, and went on to appear for the team in their UEFA Women's Champions League games.[8] Her form continued in her first few games, scoring the only goal in an away match against Nadezhda SDJuShOR-7 Mogilev on her third match for Minsk.[9]

International career

[edit | edit source]

She was part of the Nigeria national team at the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup and the winning squad at the 2014 African Women's Championship.[10]

On 16 June 2023, she was included in the 23-player Nigerian squad for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023.[11]
