Chris Greenacre (born December 23, 1977 in Wakefield) is an English footballer who currently plays as a striker for Tranmere Rovers in Football League One.

After starting his career at Manchester City, Greenacre went on to play football for the likes of Cardiff City, Mansfield Town and Stoke City, before joining League One club Tranmere Rovers on a free transfer in the summer of 2005.

Under the management of Brian Little, Tranmere finished 18th in League One in the 2005/06 season, but Greenacre himself finished top scorer with 18 goals in 49 games for the club. This included a hat-trick against Yeovil Town on 28th December and two goals against Oldham in August, which made him a firm crowd favourite.

Greenacre is highly-rated by the majority of the Tranmere fans after his performances in 2005-06. He is often praised for his high work-rate and finishing ability.
