Paul Lyons (born 24 June 1977) is an English former footballer who played as a defender or midfielder.[2][3]

Lyons was part of the Youth Training Scheme at Manchester United and played alongside players like Phil Neville, David Johnson and Phil Mulryne. In August 1994, he signed a professional contract with United but until his departure a year later he played no role in the first team and did not take part in the successful FA Youth Cup team of 1994–95.

In July 1995, he went for a trial with Third Division side Rochdale and was signed. In the spring of 1996, he made three appearances in the league. That summer, he received a short-term professional contract, but the 1996–97 season saw him no longer part of the matchday squad under new manager Graham Barrow and he left the club during the season.
