Alan Hutton (born 30 November 1984) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a right back for Aston Villa. Hutton has made 50 appearances for the Scotland national football team. After starting his career with Rangers as a teenager, going on to win the league title in 2005, Hutton moved to England to join Tottenham Hotspur and later Aston Villa. He has also played on loan at Sunderland, Mallorca, Nottingham Forest and Bolton Wanderers.
Hutton joined Rangers on 4 September 2000. He made his debut against Partick Thistle in a Scottish Premier League match on 22 December 2002. It was his first and last appearance that season; however, he made eleven appearances during 2003–04, scoring his first goal against Dunfermline Athletic at Ibrox on 23 March 2004.
He made twelve appearances during 2004–05 as the club won both the Scottish Premier League title and the Scottish League Cup. He broke his leg in February 2005 whilst playing in an SPL match against Kilmarnock, and was sidelined for eight months. The 2005–06 season proved to be difficult for Rangers domestically, and Hutton only made 23 appearances in the first team, competing with Dutchman Fernando Ricksen for the right back position.
