Stephen James Vaughan (born 22 January 1985) is an English former professional footballer and current UEFA qualified football coach and convicted criminal.[2] He was also a BBBofC licensed Boxing promoter. He is also the former President of Maltese Premier League side Floriana FC.,[3] ex-assistant coach/technical director of Mosta FC and also served a period as director of football at Bangor City.

Vaughan played as a midfielder from 2003 to 2010, mainly for Chester City, a club his father owned. He also played for Rochdale, Boston United, Droylsden and Northwich Victoria. In his second spell with Chester he became player/owner after taking over the reins from his father. In 2010, he left the club and retired from playing at the age of 25 due to a serious Achilles injury.

In 2016, he was convicted of perverting the course of justice in relation to the murder of a Liverpool police constable, and served a custodial sentence.[4]

In August 2023, Vaughan was appointed the President of Maltese third-tier club St. George's F.C.
