Andrejs Rubins (born 26 November 1978 in Riga) is a Latvian former football midfielder, who last played for the Azerbaijan Premier League club Simurq PFC. He was also a member of Latvia national football team. Currently, Rubins is the assistant manager of the Latvian First League club FK Ogre.
Rubins started his career in 1996 at FK Auda in the Latvian 2nd Division. The following year he moved to Sweden with Östers IF, where he made 11 league appearances before moving back to Latvia in 1998 to play for Skonto Riga. He played there for the next 3 seasons and managed to win 3 consecutive league titles in a row and also won the Latvian Cup twice. All in all, over those 3 seasons he helped his team, scoring 14 goals in 67 league matches.
In 2000 Rubins moved to England, joining English Football League First Division club Crystal Palace. He made just 31 appearances in three seasons at the club but still managed to impress, scoring twice in the League Cup against Leicester City and Liverpool.
In December 2002 Rubins moved to Russia initially to play Spartak Moscow in the Russian Premier League on a free transfer. However, three months later, without playing a game, he was sold to Shinnik Yaroslavl, where he played 51 games in two seasons, scoring 4 times. In January 2005 Rubins signed a four-year contract with Spartak Moscow, who were then managed by Latvian manager Aleksandrs Starkovs. After struggling to settle he made just five appearances, and the club sent him on loan back to Shinnik Yaroslavl in January 2006 for 12 months.
