Roman Olehovych Yaremchuk (Ukrainian: Рома́н Оле́гович Яремчу́к; born 27 November 1995) is a Ukrainian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Super League Greece side Olympiacos and the Ukraine national team.

After coming through Dynamo Kyiv's youth academy, Yaremchuk began playing for the club's reserve side in 2013 and was promoted to the first team two years later. He was loaned to fellow Ukrainian side Oleksandriya during the 2016–17 season, before moving to Belgian side Gent in 2018. A year later, he moved to Benfica in a transfer worth €18.5 million, before returning to Belgium the following season, to sign for Club Brugge for a transfer worth €16 million.

After representing Ukraine at various youth levels, Yaremchuk was called up to the full international side for the first time in September 2018, and played at UEFA Euro 2020 and Euro 2024.
