Christopher James Lester (born 27 October 1994) is a Northern Irish professional footballer who last played for Bolton Wanderers in the Championship as a midfielder.

Club career

A youth product of the club's academy since he joined at under-14s level,[2] Lester signed his first professional contract with the club after a good display throughout the club's academy for U18 and U21.[3]

Lester first appeared as an unused substitute for Bolton Wanderers in a 2–2 FA Cup draw against Sunderland.[4] Again, he was an unused substitute in a league match against Middlesbrough.[5] A lack of first team opportunities saw him being loaned to Chester in 2013, on a one-month loan along with teammate Conor Wilkinson.[6] He was also nominated for the Rising Star award in September 2013.[7]

On 22 April 2014, Lester made his first team debut for Bolton, coming as a 77th-minute substitute for Chung-Yong Lee against Leicester City.[8]

On 25 March 2015 it was announced that Lester had joined Hartlepool United on trial, scoring on his debut for the reserves.[9]

On 15 May 2015 Chris Lester was released by Bolton along with 12 other players.[10]

International career

In May 2013, Lester was first called up by Northern Ireland U21 after being eligible to play for them through his grandfather.[11] Lester made his Northern Ireland U21 debut on 30 May 2013, in a 3-0 loss against Cyprus U21.[12]
