Charlie Lakin (born 8 May 1999) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for EFL League Two club Walsall.

He joined Birmingham City as a nine-year-old, went on to make his senior debut for the club in the 2017–18 FA Cup, and played ten times in the 2018–19 Championship. Despite missing two months with injury, Lakin managed 25 appearances on loan at League Two club Stevenage before the 2019–20 season ended prematurely because of the COVID-19 pandemic. He spent the 2020–21 season on loan to Scottish Premiership club Ross County, before leaving Birmingham on a permanent basis for Burton Albion in August 2021. He had loan spells at Doncaster Rovers and AFC Wimbledon in 2023 and Sutton United in 2024.
