Steve Round (born November 9, 1970 in Burton upon Trent) is a football coach and ex-player, currently on the coaching staff of both England national team and Newcastle United.

As a player, Round was a full-back with Derby County, before being forced to retire early through injury after only nine league appearances. He joined the club's coaching staff, and it was here that he first worked with future England manager Steve McClaren. When McClaren was appointed Middlesbrough manager in 2001, he appointed Round to his coaching staff. McClaren was named as England head coach in 2006, and one of his first moves was to appoint Steve Round to his backroom staff. Round continued with Middlesbrough in a dual role until 15 December, 2006, when he left the club by mutual consent following a "difference in philosophy and ideas" with new manager Gareth Southgate.[1] He became first team coach at Newcastle on 1st July 2007, becoming the first coaching appointment of manager Sam Allardyce.
