David Steel Allan (born 30 April 1863 in Irvine, North Ayrshire; died 26 June 1930) was a Scottish footballer who played for Queen's Park and the Scotland national team.

He learned his football at Ayr Academy and, on moving to Glasgow to begin his career as a stockbroker, he joined Queen's Park in 1880. He won four Scottish Cup medals with the club in 1881, 1884, 1886 and 1890 and played in the club's FA Cup finals of 1884 and 1885. He also played occasionally for London-based club Corinthian.
