Stephen Brennan (born March 20, 1983 in Dublin) is an Irish professional football player who currently plays for St. Patrick's Athletic F.C. in the eircom league Premier Division.
Brennan played schoolboy football for south Dublin side St. Joseph's Boys before joining English Premiership side Newcastle United in 1999. In November 2000 he was won the FAI's Republic of Ireland Under 16 player of the year award. Brennan came close to making the breakthrough at Newcastle but his time there was blighted by injuries, the worst kept him out of football for ten months in 2003 and made him miss the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championships. He made his debut for the Ireland U21 side in a game with Scotland on February 11 2002.
Brennan joined Shelbourne for a short loan spell in March 2005 before being released by Newcastle in the summer. In July 2005 he signed for St Patrick's Athletic and began his career in midfield and then at right back. At the start of the 2006 season an injury to Colm Foley saw Brennan play in central defence alongside Darragh Maguire.
