Steve Marlet (born January 10, 1974 in Pithiviers) is a French footballer currently playing for FC Lorient. He joined Lorient in August 2006 from VfL Wolfsburg. He has been capped 23 times and scored 6 goals for the French national team.

Marlet holds the record for Fulham's biggest transfer fee on one player, as Fulham paid £11.5 million for the player back in January 2002. Scoring 11 goals in 54 games and leading to the demise of then manager Jean Tigana, he was generally considered to be one of the worst pieces of business in Fulham's history. He was loaned out to Olympique de Marseille for 18 months, with his sizeable contract still being paid by the English team, before his contract was cancelled.
