Aleksandr Zavarov (born April 20, 1961 in Luhansk, Ukraine) is a former football midfielder, who was noted for his tireless game, amazing dribbling and electric speed.

Zavarov played for Zorya Luhansk (1977-79, 1982), SKA Rostov (1980-81), and Dynamo Kyiv (1983-88), for whom he won the Cup Winners Cup in 1986. Overall, Zavarov played 41 times for the USSR, and scored six goals.

Zavarov finished his career with Juventus (1989-91), and Nancy (1991-95).

For a short time, he coached the FC Wil for a short time in 2003. Because he was lacking the necessary UEFA licence he was replaced and became from the chairman of the FC Wil, Igor Belanov, a job that was officially described as director of football.
