Michael Lumb (footballer)

Michael Lumb (born 9 January 1988) is a Danish footballer who currently plays for Lyngby BK in the Danish 1st Division.

Career

Aarhus

Lumb was born in Aarhus, Denmark to a Danish mother and an English father. He is left-footed and plays left back. He came from AGFs 1988-born Danish Youth Championship-winning team, a side that included Morten Beck Andersen, Frederik Krabbe, Michael Vester, Niels Kristensen, Jesper Blicher and Anders Syberg. Lumb was named the young gun "Shooting Star" of the autumn season 2007–08 by the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet.

Despite his youth age, Lumb has played more than 100 matches for AGF in the Superliga and First Division.

On 11 January 2010, it was reported on AGF's website that he was moving to Zenit Saint Petersburg in the Russian Premier League.

Zenit

Lumb signed a three-year contract with Sine-Belo-Golubye. In Zenit, Lumb faced a tough competition for a left back position with likes of Slovak international Tomáš Hubočan, and as a result didn't play much. Lumb played for the first team just twice in the first half of 2010 season, and the arrival of another international left defender Aleksandar Luković meant he had to move to get any playing minutes.

Michael Lumb (cricketer)

Michael John Lumb (born 12 February 1980) is an England international cricketer who plays for Nottinghamshire at county level and England in Twenty20 International cricket and One Day International cricket. Born and raised in South Africa, Lumb is a left-handed batsman and a right-arm medium pace bowler. He became only the second cricketer after Dennis Amiss to score a century on ODI Debut for England and ninth player overall to do so.

Domestic career

The son of prolific Yorkshire opener Richard Lumb, Michael Lumb was born in South Africa and was educated at Montrose Primary, then St Stithians College in Johannesburg. Lumb made his way through the junior teams in Transvaal before returning to his roots to play for Yorkshire. A hard-hitting batsman, Lumb made his county debut in 2000, scoring 66 not out against the touring Zimbabweans. A knee injury in 2001 meant that Lumb played only a small part in Yorkshire's success in winning the County Championship that year, although he did record a maiden first-class hundred against Leicestershire. In doing so Lumb became part of only the fourth father-and-son pair to score centuries for Yorkshire.
