Liam Fontaine (born January 7, 1986 in Beckenham, London) is a football player currently playing for Bristol City, in the Football League Championship. He is 189.5cm tall and weighs 77kg

He has represented England at Under-16 and Under-17 level, played for Fulham, mainly playing when injuries prevent more experienced players from playing. However, he made a couple of appearances during his breakthrough season, 2004-05, his debut coming against Southampton at St. Mary's on January 5, albeit with Fontaine on the pitch for only a few minutes. The game was drawn 3-3.

Fontaine also spent some time at Yeovil Town earlier in that season. His loan move was initially for a single month, but later was extended by a further two months. He enjoyed a further loan spell in the latter part of the 2004-05 season with Kilmarnock in the SPL.

After being brought to Yeovil Town by then Manager Gary Johnson, Liam Fontaine then went back to Fulham until he was brought to Bristol City on loan by new manager and former Yeovil Town manager Gary Johnson. The loan spell was made permanent at the end of that season with Bristol City having to pay Fulham an undisclosed fee through tribunal.
