Alexander Lang (1864 – 8 November 1901) was a Scottish professional footballer who played as a full back.

The only two goals of his League career came in the previous season and the second was the club's first–ever from a penalty–kick, in a 3–2 win against West Bromwich Albion on 28 November 1891.

As a full-back he played in a Burnley defence that kept four clean sheets and restricted the opposition to one-League-goal-in-a-match on three separate occasions.
