Alessandro Troncon (born 6 September 1973 in Treviso) is an Italian rugby union player.

Troncon has made more test appearances than any other player in Italian rugby union history. The veteran scrum-half made his Italy debut against Spain in 1994 and played alongside fly-half Diego Dominguez on more than 50 occasions, would surely have already reached three figures if he hadn't been struck down by injuries in recent times. He suffered a serious knee injury after the 2003 World Cup which forced him to miss the entire 2004 Six Nations, and to lose the role of captain for his national team.

Troncon spent two years at French side Montferrand before returning to Treviso.

In 2007 Troncon was named man of the match as he scored a try in Italy's first overseas victory at Murrayfield against Scotland in the 2007 Six Nations. Also he was named man of the match in the defeat to England at Twickenham in the 2007 Six Nations.
