Alexander Scholz (born October 24, 1992) is a Danish footballer. He plays as a defender for Standard Liége in the Belgian Pro League.
Scholz' parents are German. He was raised in the Vejle area in Denmark.
He began his career with Vejle Boldklub and later moved to Stjarnan in Iceland. In 2012, Belgian team Lokeren started scouting him following a tip from their former player Arnar Grétarsson, who had seen Scholz play in Iceland. Based on these scouting reports, Lokeren signed Scholz in December 2012, giving him a contract until 2015. Just a few days later on 19 January 2013, he made his debut in the Belgian top league in a 2-6 won away match against OH Leuven. He scored the winning goal in a 1-0 win for Lokeren in the final of the 2014 Belgian Cup Final.
