Robert “Rob” Ullathorne (born 11 October 1971) is an English former professional footballer and football agent.

He was a defender who played from 1988 to 2006 notably in the Premier League for Norwich City and Leicester City and in La Liga for CA Osasuna. He also appeared in the Football League for Sheffield United, Northampton Town and Notts County.

Predominantly a left-sided defender or midfielder Ullathorne was a successful product of Norwich City youth team. He chose to join Norwich City despite having schoolboy trials with the likes of Everton, Cambridge United, West Ham United and Luton Town.

Ullathorne made his first start for Norwich on 22 April 1991 in an away fixture against Nottingham Forest, scoring his first goal against Notts County the following season. Ullathorne went on to make a total of 115 appearances scoring eight goals in the process including a UEFA cup appearance against Inter Milan at the San Siro during Norwich City's successful run in 1993–94.

After having been at Norwich for eight years, Ullathorne was subject of interest from Crystal Palace but took the opportunity of a move to Spanish Segunda División side CA Osasuna on a free transfer, the first under the Bosman ruling from England where he was joined by fellow Englishman Jamie Pollock who arrived from Middlesbrough. Ullathorne spent just over nine months with the club before leaving to return to England in a £650,000 transfer to Leicester City.
