Lloyd Evans (born 3 December 1995) is a Welsh professional footballer who plays as a left back for German 2. Bundesliga side St. Pauli, on loan from Celtic. Born in Wales, Evans moved to Scotland at a young age. He came through the Celtic youth system but has yet to make his first team debut. He joined St. Pauli in August 2019 on a one-year loan deal.

Early life and youth football
Born in Neath in Wales, he supported Celtic as a child and signed for the club when he was 5 years old. He has spoken of his hope of emulating the late Tommy Gemmell, a member of the Lisbon Lions team who played in the same position.

He progressed through the various youth ranks and earned a reputation as a dependable wide player in the club's development squad, both in defence and attack. He travelled with the first team squad on a pre-season trip to Austria in August 2014, but did not make an appearance during the tour. However, Evans described his first experience with the first team as a "dream come true".

St. Pauli
On 14 August 2019, Evans signed for German 2. Bundesliga team, St. Pauli on a one-year loan deal.
