| Lee Johnson (born 7 June 1981) is an English professional football manager and former footballer, who is currently the manager of Lommel.
Prior to becoming a manager, he played as a midfielder for Brighton & Hove Albion, Yeovil Town, Heart of Midlothian, Bristol City, Derby County, Chesterfield and Kilmarnock.
Johnson made his managerial debut with Oldham Athletic in 2013 and led the club to safety. In February 2015 he took over as head coach of Barnsley, and a year later he was appointed as the new manager of Bristol City after an undisclosed compensation fee was agreed. Under Johnson's management, City finished twelve points above the relegation zone in eighteenth place. In July 2020, Johnson was dismissed as head coach; he was then the longest-serving manager in the Championship.
In December 2020 he became head coach of Sunderland. Johnson won the EFL Trophy a few months later, in what was Sunderland's first Wembley triumph since the 1973 FA Cup final. A short run of poor results and a heavy defeat away to Bolton Wanderers led to him being replaced by Alex Neil. Johnson was appointed Hibernian manager in May 2022, and he was sacked in August 2023.
