Andreas Möller (born September 2, 1967 in Frankfurt) is a former German football (soccer) midfielder. With the German national team, Möller won the 1990 World Cup and Euro 96.

He was a playmaker known for his range of passing and goalscoring ability.

At club level, Möller played for Eintracht Frankfurt (1985-87, 1990-92, 2003-04), Borussia Dortmund (1988-90, 1994-2000), Juventus (1992-94), and Schalke 04 (2000-03). He won the UEFA Cup with Juventus in 1993, beating Borussia Dortmund 6-1 on aggregate, Möller scoring one of the goals.
