Chris Hackett (born 1 March 1983) is an English professional footballer currently playing for English League One club Millwall. He plays on the right wing, and was a former Oxfordshire county sprint champion.

He started his career with Oxford United where he made his debut against Wigan Athletic in April 2000. On 24 January 2006 he joined former Oxford Manager Graham Rix at Scottish Premier League club Hearts in a £20,000 deal [1].

During his time at Tynecastle Hackett found first team opportunities limited to one start and one substitute appearance. His chances were not helped after Graham Rix was sacked less than two months after signing him [2]

Press speculation had linked Hackett with a move to Hearts' city rivals Hibernian [3] who were interested in him before his aforementioned transfer to Hearts.

Despite interest from Hibs, Hackett signed for Millwall on August 2, 2006.
