Floyd Anthony Streete (born 5 May 1959) is an English former professional footballer who played as a central defender.
Streete played in the Football League for Cambridge United, Derby County, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Reading, making a total of 357 appearances for all four clubs. Streete also played in the Netherlands for Utrecht and Cambuur, before finishing his career in non-league football for Leighton Town.
He is perhaps best remembered for his career at Wolves, joining the Black Country club from Derby County in October 1985 for £5,000. Derby would win promotion from the Third Division that season while Wolves suffered relegation, but he played a key role in their turnaround in fortunes which followed over the next few years. He helped them win successive promotions as Fourth Division champions in 1988 and Third Division champions a year later, also winning the Football League Trophy in the first promotion season. He helped Wolves achieve a top half finish in the Second Division for the 1989-90 season before dropping down a division and signing for Reading in July 1990.
After retiring as a player Streete worked as a PE teacher, before moving to the Cayman Islands to open a gym and teach football.
His son Remie Streete is also a professional footballer, currently on the books of Port Vale. His second son Cameron Streete is currently playing for Djurgardens IF U19 in Stockholm, Sweden.
