Callum Roddie Elder (born 27 January 1995) is an Australian professional footballer who plays for Barnsley, on loan from Leicester City as a left back. He represented Australia U20 at international level.
A left back, Elder was born in Sydney, Australia and began his youth career with Manly United, before moving to England at the age of 16 to begin a scholarship in the academy at Leicester City. After completing his scholarship at the end of the 2012–13 season, he was awarded his first professional contract. Graduating to the Foxes' U21 team, he progressed to sign a new two-year deal at the end of the 2014–15 season and a further extension a year later, which will keep him at the King Power Stadium until June 2019.
On 8 January 2015, Elder was loaned out to League Two club Mansfield Town for one month. He made his professional debut two days later, starting in a 2–1 away loss against Burton Albion. He became a regular starter, which saw his loan extended to the end of the 2014–15 season. Elder made 21 appearances for the Stags and returned to Leicester at the end of the season.
On 29 August 2015, Elder joined League One side Peterborough United on a one-month loan, which was later extended until January 2016. He made 21 appearances and scored the first senior goal of his career, which came in a 4–0 thrashing of Doncaster Rovers on 24 October 2015. A foot injury suffered in a match versus Blackpool on 19 December led to the early termination of Elder's loan.
