Halimat Ayinde is a Nigerian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for FC Rosengård and the Nigeria women's national team. Unfortunately, she will not be part of the Super Falcons for the 2024 Olympics due to an injury sustained during training at her Swedish club, Rosengård. Despite this setback, Ayinde remains optimistic and vows to bounce back stronger. Her dedication and resilience are commendable, and fans wish her a speedy recovery.

Ayinde began her international club career when she was signed by the American team Western New York Flash on June 15, 2015, from the Nigerian domestic team Delta Queens. She made her debut with a start in the 1–0 loss against the Houston Dash, being substituted in the 79th minute. During her season with the Flash, she made nine appearances, including five starts, but was released on May 12, 2016. Although she admitted to underperforming in her first season, Ayinde felt she had improved during the 2016 preseason, which included scoring against the University of Vermont's A team. This improvement, however, did not secure her selection for the Nigeria women's national football team for a match against Senegal.

Later in 2016, Ayinde joined FC Minsk of the Belarusian Premier League, making an impactful debut in the 3–0 victory over Bobruichanka Bobruisk on September 2. She was one of three Minsk players to score in the match and continued to show strong form in their UEFA Women's Champions League games. Her impressive performances included scoring the only goal in an away match against Nadezhda SDJuShOR-7 Mogilev in her third game for Minsk.

Ayinde's journey from domestic football in Nigeria to international club football in the United States and Belarus highlights her talent and determination. Despite facing challenges, including injuries and periods of underperformance, she has consistently shown the ability to bounce back and contribute significantly to her teams. As she focuses on her recovery, her fans and supporters remain hopeful for her swift return to the field.
