Julian Gressel (born 16 December 1993) is a German footballer who plays for Atlanta United FC in Major League Soccer.

Gressel began his footballing career by playing in the youth academy systems of 2. Bundesliga side, SpVgg Greuther Fürth in 2002. In 2009, Gressel left Greuther Fürth and began playing for the academy set-up of Quelle Fürth.

Ahead of the 2013 NCAA Division I men's soccer season, Gressel signed a National Letter of Intent to play for Providence College's men's soccer program. During the 2013 season, Gressel was an immediate starter, starting and playing in all 22 fixtures the Friars played in. Gressell scored on his collegiate debut on 30 August 2013, in a 3–2 victory over Quinnipiac. In his freshman season, the Friars managed to reach the championship match of the 2013 Big East Men's Soccer Tournament, before losing 3–2 against Marquette. The Friars ultimately earned an at-large bid into the 2013 NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Championship, where they reached the second round before losing to the fifth-seeded, Maryland. Gressel finished his freshman year with five goals and four assists. He was also awarded with a spot on the 2013 All-Big East Conference Second Team, and on the All-Rookie Team.

During his sophomore and junior seasons, Gressell earned honors on the Big East Conference All-Tournament teams for both the 2014 and 2015 editions of the tournaments. Additionally, during his junior season, Gressell earned spots on the NSCAA Third Team All-Great Lakes Region and the Second Team All-Big East Conference.
