Johhny Walker (born 12 December 1973 in Glasgow, Scotland) is a former professional association football player who played as a midfielder. He notably played for Rangers and Mansfield Town. He played between 1989 and 2004.

Walker started his playing career for Clydebank in 1989. The following year he earned himself a move to Rangers but in three years at Ibrox he failed to make an appearance. In 1993 he made a move back to Clydebank, only to move to England in 1995, signing with Grimsby Town. He was brought Blundell Park by Brian Laws but was hardly used in the 14 months he spent at the club, and eventually joined Mansfield Town following a loan spell at the club.

After spending time with Scarborough and Kingstonian, he returned to Scotland in 1999 to play out his career for Greenock Morton, Clydebank and Hamilton Academical.
