Danny Vukovic (born March 27, 1985 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia) is an Australian football (soccer) player. He currently plays as a goalkeeper for the Australian A-League club the Central Coast Mariners. He has previously played for Bonnyrigg White Eagles and Parramatta Power.

Vukovic made his debut in the A-League during September 2005, against Melbourne Victory. He got the opportunity after first-choice keeper, John Crawley, suffered a season-ending hip injury. They lost the game 2-1, however Danny saved an Archie Thompson penalty and was widely praised for his debut effort. Danny went on to play 19 more games for the Mariners in the 2005-06 season, achieving 5 clean sheets, and also saved a penalty from Sydney FC's star player, Dwight Yorke.

He was a part of the Australian roster for the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship and for the 2006 Asian Cup qualifier between Australia and Kuwait.
