Arnór Guðjohnsen (born 30 April 1961) is an Icelandic former footballer who played as a striker. He is most famous for his seven-year stint with Belgian club Anderlecht and was the top scorer in the 1986–87 season. He is the father of striker Eiður Guðjohnsen.
Starting his career at Víkingur in Iceland, Arnór also played for Valur & Stjarnan, K.S.C. Lokeren Oost-Vlaanderen & R.S.C. Anderlecht in Belgium, FC Girondins de Bordeaux in France, BK Häcken & Örebro SK in Sweden.
Arnór took the final penalty of the 1984 UEFA Cup Final shootout which was saved by Tottenham's Tony Parks.
He is the father and agent of striker Eiður Guðjohnsen. Arnór and Eiður are the only father and son to play for a national football team during the same game, in a match on 24 April 1996 in which Iceland beat Estonia 3–0 in Tallinn. Arnór was 34 and Eiður was just 17 when it happened. Eiður came on as a second-half substitute for his father, so they never actually played together.
