Anton Lars Tinnerholm (born 26 February 1991) is a Swedish former professional footballer who played as a defender. Starting off his career with Åtvidabergs FF in 2008, he went on to represent Malmö FF and New York City FC before retiring at Malmö FF in 2025.

Career

=Åtvidabergs FF=

In his early years Tinnerholm played for local Östergötland clubs Brokinds IF and IK Östria Lambohov before moving to play professionally for Åtvidabergs FF, one of the larger clubs in the county. Tinnerholm moved to Åtvidaberg in 2008 but didn't make his first league appearance for the club until the year after. After making twelve appearances for Åtvidaberg in Sweden's second tier Superettan, in 2009, he played a much smaller role and played only two matches for the club after they had been promoted to the 2010. Back in Superettan again for the 2011 season Tinnerholm played regularly and appeared in 28 of 30 matches for the club as they won the league, and thus also promotion back to Allsvenskan. Tinnerholm continued to play regularly for the club as he made 25 appearances in 2012 and 29 appearances in 2013 as the club enjoyed mid table results.
