Football career

Tottenham Hotspur

Lancaster joined Tottenham Hotspur's Academy in the 2009–10 season.[2]

He joined League One club, Dagenham & Redbridge on loan for a month on 22 March 2011.[3] Lancaster made his debut for Dagenham on 26 March, in the 1–1 home draw with Sheffield Wednesday when he came on as a substitute for Bas Savage in the 63rd minute.[4] Lancaster then had his loan spell with the club extended until the end of the season.[5] After his loan spell with Daggers came to an end, Lancaster was given his first professional contract with the club.[6]

Lancaster made his only appearance for Tottenham in a Premier League match against Wigan Athletic on 31 January 2012, coming on as a substitute in the 78th minute for Emmanuel Adebayor.[7] Six months later, Lancaster signed a two-year contract with the club, keeping him until 2014.[8] At the end of the 2013-14 season, Lancaster was released by the club upon expiry of his contract.[9]

Stevenage and St. Albans

After being released by Tottenham Hotspur, Lancaster joined Stevenage.[10] This came after Lancaster made an impression as a trialist at the club.[11] Lancaster made his Stevenage debut the same day, in a 3-2 win over Wimbledon.[12] After making six appearance, Lancaster left the club by December.

Lancaster joined St. Albans City on 5 December 2014.[13] Lancaster scored on his debut two days later, in a 1-0 win over Bath City.[14] After one month at the club, Lancaster left St. Albans City, with a hint move to America.[15]
