Paul Maguire is a Scottish footballer best who played for a number of English clubs.

Originally at Kilbirnie Ladeside, Maguire joined Shrewsbury Town in 1976. He was a key player in the club's rise to the Second Division, before joining Stoke City in 1980. After injuries plagued his first season, Maguire established himself down the left wing, scoring vital goals and being known as something of a dead-ball specialist.

Maguire left Stoke in 1984 to spend a year in the United States, playing with Tacoma Stars. He returned to England and signed for Port Vale, where he spent three years before leaving for non-league football with Northwich Victoria.
