Roman Andreyevich Savosin (Russian: Роман Андреевич Савосин, born 4 December 1999) is a Russian figure skater. He is the 2016 CS Tallinn Trophy champion, 2016 CS Ondrej Nepela Memorial bronze medalist, and 2016 JGP France champion.

Savosin began learning to skate in 2003.

After winning the bronze medal at the 2016 Russian Junior Championships, he was selected to compete at the 2016 World Junior Championships in Debrecen. He qualified for the free skate in Hungary by placing 13th in the short program and went on to finish 14th overall.

Savosin received his first Junior Grand Prix (JGP) assignment in the 2016–17 season. Ranked second in both segments, he won the gold medal in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, France, by a margin of 7.74 points over his teammate Ilia Skirda. After winning bronze at his second JGP event, in Ostrava, Czech Republic, he qualified to the JGP Final.

Savosin's senior international debut came in late September and early October 2016 at a Challenger Series (CS) event, the Ondrej Nepela Memorial. He placed fifth in the short and second in the free skate to win the bronze medal with a personal best score of 222.37 points, behind Sergei Voronov and Kevin Reynolds. In November, he outscored Anton Shulepov for gold at the 2016 CS Tallinn Trophy after placing second in the short and first in the free skate. Competing at the 2016–17 JGP Final, held in December in Marseille, he placed third in the short, fourth in the free, and fourth overall.
