Craig Leon Eastmond (born 9 December 1990) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for and captains League Two club Sutton United. He is also capable of playing at right-back. A product of the Arsenal Academy who came to prominence during the 2008–09 FA Youth Cup, Eastmond would make ten first team appearances between 2009 and 2013 for Arsenal in the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and UEFA Champions League.

Eastmond had three loan spells away from the Gunners. He joined Millwall on loan in 2011, with whom he spent some of his early youth career. He was loaned to Wycombe Wanderers and Colchester United in 2012, and signed for Colchester on a permanent basis in 2013 following the expiry of his contract with Arsenal.
