Alexander David "Alex" Revell (born 7 July 1983) is an English footballer who plays as a striker for League One side Northampton Town.

Revell is a graduate of the Cambridge United youth set-up, where he struggled to establish himself during his stint at the Abbey Stadium.

Discovering his first team opportunities at Cambridge were limited, Revell spent a loan spell at then Conference National club Kettering Town.

Soon afterwards, Revell left Cambridge in 2004 where he made the decision to drop out of the Football League by joining Braintree Town.

During his time at Braintree, Revell managed to find the net 35 times for the club, where he managed to help them gain promotion to the Conference South during the 2005–06 season.

Revell was signed by Brighton & Hove Albion from Braintree for £8,000 during the close season of 2005–06.

On 1 January 2008, Revell scored his first professional hat-trick as Brighton defeated Bournemouth 3–2 at the Withdean.

On 30 January 2008, Revell made his move from Brighton to Southend on a two-and-a-half-year contract for £150,000. Steve Tilson had been a long admirer of Revell and tried to sign him in August 2007 transfer window.

On 16 August 2008, Revell scored his first league goal for Southend in a 1–1 draw with Millwall at The New Den. Revell scored his first home league goal for the Shrimpers in a 2–1 win over Swindon Town at Roots Hall on 18 October 2008. After several excellent hard working performances without reward, Revell scored his third goal for Southend after 10 minutes in the 2–2 draw away at Tranmere on 15 November 2008, getting ahead of Craig Duncan to meet Kevin Betsy's cross.
