Career

During the first half of the 2014–15 Bundesliga, Lomb was the third goalkeeper for Bayer Leverkusen, being left out of the squad in all official matches. Subsequently he was loaned to 3. Liga side Hallescher FC for the remainder of the season.^[3] He was part of the team that defeated VfL Halle 1896 6–0 to win the 2015 Saxony-Anhalt Cup.

Lomb then made two appearances during the 2020–21 Bundesliga and four total appearances during the 2020–21 and 2023–24 UEFA Europa League for Bayer Leverkusen, although he was not credited with winning the 2023–24 Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen due to making no appearances for the club during the Bundesliga season.
