Junior Antony Bent (born March 1, 1970 in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire) is an English former professional footballer. He played as a forward.

Bent began his career at Huddersfield Town, his hometown club, in 1987. He made 36 league appearances and scored six goals for the Terriers before joining Bristol City in 1990 for a £30,000 fee. Bent spent seven years at Ashton Gate, making almost 200 appearances and scoring 20 goals.

After loan spells at Stoke City and Shrewsbury Town, in 1992 and 1996 respectively, Bent signed for Blackpool in 1997 for a nominal fee. In four years at Bloomfield Road he made just over 100 appearances and found the net on five occasions.

He left the seaside in 2001, after Blackpool were relegated to Division Three, and joined Kettering Town, with whom he finished his playing career.
