Winston Wiremu Reid (born July 3, 1988) is a Danish-New Zealand football player. He plays in the central defence. Born in 1988 he is a very young player, but has already got his debut on the first team in 2005. Recently he got Danish citizenship, and was called up for the under 19 national team, along with other FC Midtjylland players Jesper Weinkouff, Simon Kjær, and Christian Sivebæk.

He is one of the first players to graduate from FCM's football academy, the first of it's kind in Denmark. He has alredy bagun to prove his big talent, and is arguably the best central defender in FCM. He is almost a sure starter, and has taken over Magnus Troests place as the leading defensive talent in the club.
