Leonid Viktorovich Slutsky (/ˈsltski/ SLOOT-skee; Russian: Леонид Викторович Слуцкий; born 4 May 1971) is a Russian professional football coach and a former player. He is the manager of Hull City.

Slutsky was born in Volgograd. Slutsky's playing career with FC Zvezda Gorodishche ended at just 19 years of age. He had to retire due to a knee injury sustained after falling out of a tree while rescuing a neighbour's cat.

Slutsky was head coach of FC Moscow 14 July 2005 until the end of the 2007 season. His final match as head coach of Moscow was a 3–1 win against Luch-Energiya Vladivostok on 11 November 2007. Slutsky became head coach of Krylia Sovetov on 1 January 2008.

On 26 October 2009 he replaced Juande Ramos to become the head coach of CSKA Moscow. In December 2009, under Slutsky, CSKA reached the knock-out stage of the Champions League for the first time in the club's history, before being knocked out by Mourinho's Inter Milan in the quarter-finals.
