Thijs Dallinga (born 3 August 2000) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a striker for Eredivisie club Excelsior.

Dallinga emerged as a talent of Emmen and signed with Groningen in 2018. His breakthrough came after moving to Excelsior as a free agent in 2021, scoring an unprecedented 36 goals in 43 appearances in the 2021–22 Eerste Divisie season and subsequent playoffs, to help the club win promotion to the Eredivisie.

A Dutch youth international, Dallinga has gained two caps for the Netherlands under-19, scoring one goal.

Club career

Emmen

Dallinga was born in Groningen and grew up in the towns of Siddeburen and Hellum.[2] He played youth football for VV Siddeburen and VV Hoogezand, until he joined the youth academy of FC Emmen in 2012.[3]

He progressed through the youth teams of Emmen before making his professional debut on 27 November 2017 in a 2–1 victory over MVV in the Eerste Divisie, coming on as a substitute in the 83rd minute for Cas Peters.[4] On 9 April 2018, he scored his first senior goal in a league match against Telstar.[5] In his debut season, Emmen managed to win promotion to the Eredivisie via the play-offs, in which Dallinga did not make an appearance.[6]

Groningen

On 28 June 2018, Dallinga signed a three-year contract with Groningen, and would initially join their reserve team competing in the Derde Divisie.[7] After the reserve team withdrew from competition, Dallinga was one of the few players that would stay with the club.[8] He was subsequently promoted to the first team.[9]

On 12 December 2020, Dallinga made his debut for Groningen in the Eredivisie, coming off the bench in the 74th minute for Jørgen Strand Larsen in a 2–0 victory against RKC Waalwijk.[10][11]

After the 2020–21 season, Dallinga chose to not extend his expiring contract in order for him to gain more experience elsewhere.[12]

Excelsior

In May 2021, Dallinga signed for Excelsior on a free transfer, penning a contract for two seasons.[1][13] He immediately became a starter in manager Marinus Dijkhuizen's team. On 6 August 2021, He made his debut in the 1–0 home loss to TOP Oss.[14] On 13 August, he scored his first goal for Excelsior in a 2–1 away win over Roda JC Kerkrade.[15] Three weeks later, on 3 September, Dallinga impressed by scoring four goals in the 5–0 away win over FC Den Bosch.[16] On 25 September, he scored a brace against Jong PSV in a 3–0 win, bringing his tally to nine goals in eight league games.[17] In the first 19 games for the club, he scored 24 goals and was on pace to break the goal record in the Eerste Divisie.[18]

Dallinga would also prove decisive in the playoffs for promotion after Excelsior qualified by finishing sixth in the league table.[19] He scored four goals in their six matches en route to Eredivisie promotion, including a crucial 3–3 equaliser in injury time of the final playoff tie agaist ADO Den Haag on 29 May 2022. This happened after having missed a penalty kick earlier in the game.[20] With 36 goals from Dallinga that season, Excelsior achieved promotion after a penalty shoot-out.[21]

International career

In 2018, Dallinga was called up by Netherlands under-19 coach Maarten Stekelenburg for three friendly matches.[22] He made his debut on 14 November 2018 in a 4–0 win over Armenia. On 20 November 2018, he scored the winning goal in the 2–1 victory over Portugal just eight minutes after coming off the bench.[23]
