Aleksandr Genrikhovich Borodyuk (Russian: Александр Генрихович Бородюк) (born 30 November 1962 in Voronezh) is a Russian football manager and former international player for USSR and Russia.

Aleksandr Borodyuk attended the Fakel football school and spent one season with their senior team. He was conscripted to play for Dynamo Vologda and transferred to Moscow a year later. When the conscription term ended, Borodyuk stayed in Dynamo Moscow and later achieved the rank of junior lieutenant. With Dynamo he won the Soviet Cup in 1984 and became the top scorer of the Soviet League in 1986 and 1988. Valery Gazzaev, Igor Dobrovolsky, and Igor Kolyvanov were his teammates.

In 1988 Borodyuk became the Olympic champion. After Anatoly Byshovets became the manager of Dynamo, Borodyuk lost his place in the starting line-up and moved to Germany to play for Schalke 04. He became the top scorer of the club. Then he moved to SC Freiburg and finished third in Bundesliga with them in 1995.

Aleksandr Borodyuk is the only Russian player to become one of the best three players of Bundesliga. He also scored the 30,000th goal of Bundesliga.

Borodyuk returned to Russia at the age of 34 and was invited to Lokomotiv Moscow by Yuri Semin. With Lokomotiv he reached the semifinal of the UEFA Cup and won the Russian Cup in 1997.

At the age of 39 he retired as a player and worked as the assistant coach first with Aleksandr Tarkhanov in Krylia Sovetov, then with Georgi Yartsev in the national team.

Borodyuk is a member of the Grigory Fedotov club.

Aleksandr Borodyuk was the caretaker manager of Russia national team from 6 December 2005 to June 2006. He is also the manager of Russia U21 team since December 2005 to February 2007. In February 2007 he became Guus Hiddink's assistant and Boris Stukalov succeeded as U-21 coach.
