Linda Charlotta Sällström (born 13 July 1988) is a Finnish international footballer. She currently plays for Swedish club Vittsjö GIK in the Damallsvenskan and the Finland women's national football team.
She made her debut for the senior Finland team on 31 May 2007; playing 17 minutes against Norway.
Sällström missed the entire 2012 season with an anterior cruciate ligament injury. She re–injured the knee in March 2013 and was ruled out of contention for a place in Finland's UEFA Women's Euro 2013 squad.
On 25 January 2014 Sällstrom injured her anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) again, making it likely she would miss the 2014 season.
In total Sällström has endured three ACL injuries in her career. Coming back from injury to finish as second highest goalscorer in the 2017/18 Damallsvenskan season.
