Thierry Tinmar (born 19 May 1963) is a Martiniquais former professional football player and manager. As a player, he was a centre-back.[1] He notably played for Paris Saint-Germain, Laval, and Red Star in France and played for the Martinique national team.

Club career

Originally from Martinique, Tinmar was a product of the Paris Saint-Germain Academy.[2] Integrating the first team during the 1984–85 season, he made a total of 22 appearances in all competitions.[3] PSG reached the Coupe de France final that season, but lost 1–0 to Monaco. He was loaned at fellow Division 1 club Laval at the end of the campaign.

After one season with Laval, Tinmar signed with Division 2 club Red Star. He would also stay there one only one season. For almost a year, Tinmar was a free agent. Then, in 1988, he signed for Division 3 side Châteauroux. His spell at the club lasted until 1989, as he then moved back to Martinique to play for Club Franciscain. Tinmar retired in 1993.

International career

Having just won the 1993 Caribbean Cup with Martinique two months prior, Tinmar was included in the squad for the 1993 CONCACAF Gold Cup by manager Raymond Destin. He would go on to make three appearances in the tournament, playing in each of Martinique's three group stage games. Tinmar scored one goal for the team, an equalizer against Costa Rica in the final match. However, Martinique were eliminated, as they finished bottom of their group.
