John Fleck (born August 24, 1991) is a Scottish football midfielder and striker currently playing for Rangers. He is a regular in the Rangers Under 19 team, despite being considerably younger than most players in that age bracket. His uncle Robert Fleck was a regular player for Rangers in the 1980s and played for Scotland, including being in the squad at the 1990 FIFA World Cup.

On September 12, 2006, Fleck captained Scotland Under 16s to an 11-0 victory over Jersey Under 17s, scoring a hat trick in the process. He was the captain of the Scotland side at the 2006 Victory Shield competition.

His youth, ability and physique has drawn similarities to Wayne Rooney in the media. In light of this, Adidas have signed Fleck on a sponsorship deal and Rangers have tied him to a professional contract.[1]
