Managerial career

On 2 March 2016, it was confirmed that Lind was the new manager of Västra Frölunda IF.[4] He still continued to play for Halmstads BK. But after only two matches in the charge of the club, he was forced to terminate his contract on 10 March 2016, because Halmstads BK didn't want him to play and coach at the same time.[5]

Lind was appointed as the new manager of Husqvarna FF for the 2017 season on 28 November 2016.[6] After the death of Husqvarna's sporting director, Issa Iskander, Lind took over this role as well.[7]

On 15 December 2017, Lind was announced as the new manager of Norrby IF for the 2018 season.[8]
