John Reilly (born 21 March 1962 in Dundee) is a Scottish former professional footballer who played as a striker. Reilly began his career with Dundee United, signing as a schoolboy from Strathtay Boys Club in 1979. He played for the Scotland Under 17 and Under 18 professional youth sides before making his first team debut in August 1980. He was a member of the squad that won a Premier League Winners medal in season 1982–1983 before going onto score the club's first ever goal in the European Cup the following season. Signing for Motherwell in 1985, Reilly suffered an achilles tendon injury in his first game for the club and despite seeing several specialists over the next 18 months was forced into early retirement.
