Tommy Lee (born January 3, 1986 in Keighley) is an English football goalkeeper, currently without a club after being released by Macclesfield Town.
Lee came to Manchester United as a junior player in 2002. In 2005, he helped United's reserve team win the quadruple. In the 2005-2006 season he was loaned to Macclesfield Town for what was originally going to be a month, but was extended to three months.
Lee made his league début away at Oxford United. During his loan period, Macclesfield boss Brian Horton told the Macclesfield Express: "Tommy has been excellent since joining us in January. I spoke to Tony Coton, United's goalkeeping coach, and Sir Alex Ferguson. Both were happy to extend Tommy's loan spell."
In August 2006, he signed a contract with Macclesfield Town, arriving on a free transfer from Manchester United.
On 6 January 2007, Lee kept goal for Macclesfield Town against English Champions Chelsea F.C. at Stamford Bridge. Despite suffering an injury to his arm on a save from Chelsea F.C. striker Salomon Kalou, he continued to keep until he was awarded a Red Card and subsequently sent off after a foul on Chelsea F.C. striker Andriy Shevchenko. This sending off reduced Macclesfield to 10 men and signalled the beginning of the 6-1 rout of Macclesfield by the Premiership Champions.
On 22 March 2008 Lee joined Rochdale on loan from Macclesfield Town and played in Dale's Play Off Final appearance at Wembley Stadium against Stockport County. Lee was released by Macclesfield in May 2008.
