Denny Johnstone (born 9 January 1995) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a forward for League Two club Colchester United.
Johnstone came through the ranks at Queen of the South before moving to Celtic at 13-years-old. He left Celtic in 2014 without making a first-team appearance to join English Championship club Birmingham City. He spent time on loan with Conference club Macclesfield Town and League Two clubs Cheltenham Town and title-winners Burton Albion in 2014–15, and spent the 2015–16 season on loan to Greenock Morton in the Scottish Championship. He left Birmingham to join League Two Colchester United in June 2016.
Johnstone has represented Scotland at under-16, under-17, under-18 and under-19 levels.
Born in Dumfries, Johnstone joined the youth system at local club Queen of the South at the age of eight until he was 13-years-old, when he joined Celtic. With Celtic, he scored the opening goal in the under-19s first match in the 2012–13 NextGen Series at home to Sporting Lisbon, while he also contributed to Celtic winning the Scottish Premier under-20 League, and scored with his first touch of the ball to confirm their Scottish Youth Cup victory by beating Dunfermline Athletic's under-20s 3–1.
