Playing career
[edit]From Beveren, De Caigny spent the early years of her career with Club Brugge where she played in two Belgian Cup Finals, losing both. She moved in 2015 to Lierse for a season and spending a year in Norway the following year with Vålerenga.
De Caigny joined Anderlecht in 2017, enjoying league glory in each of her four seasons with the Brussels club, winning four league titles in a row,[3][4] before moving in the summer of 2021 to Frauen-Bundesliga club 1899 Hoffenheim, where she played in the 2021-22 UEFA Women's Champions League.
Returning to Anderlecht in 2023,[5] she helped the Mauves win the 2023-24 Belgian title via the title play-offs, overhauling regular season winners Oud-Heverlee Leuven.[6]
She won the Belgian Golden Shoe for Player of the Year in 2020.[5]
International career

At the start of 2022, De Caigny helped Belgium win the Pinatar Cup in Spain for the first time, beating Russia on penalties in the final after a 0-0 draw. De Caigny scored in the shoot-out.[7]
On 18 July 2022, she scored the only goal in a 1–0 win over Italy, earning Belgium a spot in the quarter-finals of the Euro 2022 for the first time in the history of the competition.[8][5]
On 12 July 2024, De Caigny recorded her 100th cap for Belgium in a 3–0 defeat against Denmark.[9]
