Aurélien Collin (French pronunciation: [oʁeljɛ̃ kɔlɛ̃]; born 8 March 1986) is a French-Venezuelan footballer who plays for New York Red Bulls in Major League Soccer.
Collin began his career in the youth ranks of French side Sedan in 2004 and remained with the club until joining Amiens one year later. In 2007 he left for Spain joining the youth ranks of Mallorca.
Collin joined Scottish club Gretna from La Liga club Mallorca in August 2007, receiving international clearance to play for the club on 14 August. He signed a two-year contract with the club. He made his debut for the club in a 1–1 draw with Hearts on 18 August. He scored an own goal in a 4–0 defeat against Rangers on 1 September 2007 at Ibrox Stadium.
Following his release by Gretna, Collin spent a week on trial with English Championship club Blackpool, having also been on trial with fellow Championship clubs, Preston North End, and later, Wolverhampton Wanderers. However, none of these trials led to a permanent deal being offered. He later signed a one-year contract with Greek club Panserraikos.
On 5 February 2009, Collin joined Conference club Wrexham on a one-year contract until the end of the season, making his debut in a 0–0 draw with Ebbsfleet United. On 5 August 2009, he joined Portuguese side Vitoria Setubal on a free transfer and a two-year deal. He scored his first goal with Vitoria on 16 January 2010 in a 2-2 draw with Vitória Guimarães. While with the Portuguese side, Collin appeared in 37 matches and scored five goals.
