George James McEachran (born 30 August 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Swindon Town. He is the younger brother of fellow footballer Josh McEachran.

Club career

McEachran was an unused substitute for Chelsea in the 2019 UEFA Europa League Final. The following season, he spent a short time on loan at SC Cambuur in the Dutch second division.[2]

In this 2020–21 season, McEachran returned to the Netherlands with MVV Maastricht on a season-long loan. In December 2020, he ended his loan prematurely for 'compelling private reasons'.[3][4]

In February 2023 he signed for Swindon Town.[5]

International career

McEachran was a member of the England U17s side that finished runners-up at the 2017 UEFA European Under-17 Championship - scoring in a 4-0 group stage victory over Ukraine[6] and going on to be named in the team of the tournament. McEachran and that Young Lions squad would go on to better that achievement later that year by winning the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup in India.[7]
