Matthew Charles Lund (born 21 November 1990) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for EFL League Two club Salford City where he holds the role of player-coach.

Lund began his career with English club Stoke City in the Premier League, where he failed to make his debut. He instead made his senior debut while a loan spell at Hereford United in November 2010. Further loan spells took Lund to Oldham Athletic and Bristol Rovers (twice) and he ended 2011–12 on loan at Southend United. In July 2013, Lund made a permanent transfer to then-League Two side Rochdale, after being released by Stoke City. He went on to enjoy an excellent season, scoring nine goals from midfield to help Rochdale to promotion.

Born in England, Lund has played internationally for the Northern Ireland national team six times at the under-21 level and three times at senior level.
