Ján Novota (born 29 November 1983) is a retired Slovak football goalkeeper.

Novota made his national team debut against Montenegro on 23 May 2014 (2-0 win), playing the second half of the friendly fixture.[1] Later he was fielded in 3 additional friendly games against Iceland, Georgia and Austria, which was his last international cap on 15 November 2016. The only game he played for entire 90 minutes was against Iceland.

Novota was forced to retire from professional football in 5 February 2018 after suffering from aortic aneurysm, which caused his aorta to reach some 1.3 times the normal.[2] His last competitive game was for Debrecen on 9 December 2017 in Round 19 of Nemzeti Bajnokság I against Diósgyőri.
