Trent Lucas Sainsbury (born 5 January 1992) is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as a centre back for Italian club Internazionale, on loan from Jiangsu Suning, and the Australia national team.

Sainsbury was born in Perth and played youth football with Perth Glory and the Australian Institute of Sport Football Program before starting his professional career with Central Coast Mariners. Sainsbury moved to PEC Zwolle in 2014.

Sainsbury has made twenty-one appearances for the Australian national team, scoring once. He was a member of the Australia team which won the 2015 AFC Asian Cup.

Sainsbury was born in Perth, Western Australia. He attended Kelmscott Senior High School.

Trent started playing soccer at a very early age at Armadale Junior Soccer Club in Armadale, Western Australia.

In addition to holding an Australian passport, Sainsbury also holds a UK passport.

Sainsbury's partner, Elissa, is the daughter of Australian football manager Graham Arnold.

Sainsbury began his youth career at Perth Glory in 2008 before moving a year later to the AIS where he was part of their National Youth League squad in the 2009–10 season.

In 2010, Sainsbury was signed by the Central Coast Mariners along with Sam Gallagher. Trent and Mariners teammate Marc Warren were selected to spend two weeks at Sheffield United’s Academy as part of the two clubs' partnership. His senior debut came for the Mariners on 24 November 2010 in an F3 Derby draw with Newcastle Jets, with Sainsbury earning praise from coach Graham Arnold for his performance. Trent went on to make a total of nine appearances in the first team that year.
