Isaiah Rankin (born 22 May 1978) is an English professional footballer currently playing for Macclesfield Town, on loan from Grimsby Town. Rankin is a pacy, powerful striker who can also play on the right wing if needed.

Rankin has played for a host of clubs in his relatively short career: (in chronological order) Arsenal, Colchester United, Bradford City, Birmingham City, Bolton Wanderers, Barnsley and Grimsby Town before joining Brentford in June 2004.

Rankin's goal against Southampton in the 2004-05 FA Cup Fifth Round was nominated on Match of the Day's 'Goal of the Month' competition, but did not win the top prize.

Rankin was released from Brentford on 17 May 2006 and signed a two year contract with Grimsby Town on 26 June, for whom he played on loan in the 2003-04 season.

On March 22, 2007, Rankin moved to Macclesfield, trialling until the end of the 2006/07 season.
