John David Lundstram (born 18 February 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Scottish Premiership club Rangers.

Lundstram started his career in Everton's academy.

2010

Lundstram was developed as a football player by Everton from a very early age and signed a full-time scholarship in July 2010.

He played in two of the club's three play-off matches and came on as a substitute for Dave Mooney in the 108th minute of the play-off final against Rotherham United.

Lundstram was one of the three Leyton Orient players to convert their kick in a penalty shoot-out, which they lost 4–3.

After the Os failed to achieve promotion, Lundstram returned to his parent club.

2011

He signed his first professional contract in June 2011 but never made a first-team appearance for Everton.

In June 2011, Lundstram signed a two-year professional contract with Everton, followed by another two-year contract in June 2013.

2013

In February 2013, he joined Doncaster Rovers on a one-month loan.

He made his full league début for the club in a 1–1 draw against Yeovil Town on 23 February 2013.

There was concern over Lundstram's future at Doncaster Rovers after he sustained an ankle injury during a match against Portsmouth, which ended a 1–1 draw, but in the end Lundstram's loan spell was extended until the end of the season.

Lundstram went on to make over a dozen appearances for Rovers, becoming a key part of the side that lifted the League One trophy at the end of the season.

On 28 November 2013, Lundstram joined Football League Championship side Yeovil Town on loan until January.

He made his debut against Watford two days later, Yeovil winning 3–0.

During the match, Lundstram assisted Joe Edwards for the third goal.

On 3 December, he scored on his second appearance for the club in a 1–0 win against Blackpool.

Lundstram then extended his loan until the end of the season.

2014

On 22 July 2014, he made his first appearance for Everton's first team in a friendly against Tranmere Rovers.

At the end of the 2014–15 season, Lundstram was released by the club.

Lundstram later revealed that Everton offered him a six-month contract, but he rejected it in search of first-team football, saying that "it definitely makes a difference being permanent. You just feel much more part of things."

He scored his second goal for the club in a 3–2 loss against Derby County on 28 January 2014.

On 10 March 2014, Lundstram was recalled by Everton having become a peripheral figure at Yeovil, having made 16 appearances and scoring twice.

On 27 March 2014, Lundstram joined Football League One side Leyton Orient on a one-month loan deal.

Two days later, he made his debut in a 1–0 loss against Bradford City.

After five appearances, Lundstram extended his loan stay until after the Football League play-offs on 24 April 2014.

On 6 August 2014, Lundstram joined Blackpool on a season-long loan, making his debut on 9 August.

2015

He had loan spells at Doncaster Rovers, Yeovil Town, Leyton Orient, Blackpool and Scunthorpe United before leaving Everton to join Oxford United in 2015.

Lundstram made seventeen straight appearances for Blackpool until he was recalled by his parent club on 3 January 2015.

On 9 January 2015, Lundstram rejoined Leyton Orient on loan until 19 February 2015, stating on his return: "I feel like I have unfinished business at Orient after the way last season ended."

His second debut for the club came the following day, when he came on as a second-half substitute for Josh Wright in a 1–0 defeat by Fleetwood Town.

After four appearances, it was announced on 19 February 2015 that Lundstram would return to his parent club.

Just 30 days after returning to his parent, Lundstram joined Scunthorpe United on a one-month loan deal.

Upon moving to Scunthorpe, Lundstram expressed happiness at the way the club treated him.

His debut came in a 4–0 loss against Sheffield United.

After extending his loan spell at the club, he went on to make seven appearances before returning to Everton at the end of the season.

2017

After racking up 104 appearances for Oxford, he joined Sheffield United in 2017.

He helped the Blades win two promotions and played for them in the Premier League for two seasons.

He then signed for Rangers in July 2021.

Lundstram has scored goals in each of England's top four divisions.

He has represented England internationally at under-17, under-18, under-19, and under-20 levels and has appeared in four official youth competitions for the Three Lions.
