Career

Lijnders began his managerial career in 2002 with PSV Eindhoven, helping with youth training and individual player development. In 2006, he moved to Porto and helped develop their youth academy, working under guidance of Vítor Frade and Luís Castro. During his time in the club he worked under Jesualdo Ferreira, André Villas-Boas, Vítor Pereira and Paulo Fonseca.[1] In 2014, he moved to Liverpool and assisted Brendan Rodgers and Jürgen Klopp as assistant coach, as well as First Team trainer with Klopp.[2]

On 2 January 2018, Lijnders accepted the managerial job at NEC in the Dutch Eerste Divisie.[3] He signed a contract of one year and a half.[4] On 17 May 2018, Lijnders was sacked after NEC failed to gain promotion to the Eredivisie in the promotion play-offs.[5]
