Glen Little
| Date of birth | 15 October 1975 |
| Place of birth | Wimbledon |
| Nationality | English |
| Weight | 83 kg |
| Height | 1.91 m |
| Position | Midfielder |
Burnley's very talented wingman began the 2000-01 campaign in style, coming on as a substitute in the opening game at Bolton Wanderers and proceeding to torment the home defence, thus providing the key to the Clarets' recovery which gave them a well-earned point.
However, the season was generally a disappointing one for Glen as hamstring problems severely restricted his appearances.
At his best, he was still irresistible, the only Burnley player truly capable of turning a game and a constant thorn in the side of opponents who could never fathom his next move.
He was mostly used as a right winger, but was also occasionally employed at wing back, despite the fact that defence is certainly not his natural style.
Glen's contract at Reading was extended to June 2008 in November 2006.
He joined Portsmouth in July 2007 with a one-year contract.
Glen joined Sheffield United in August 2009 with a one-year contract.
He joined Aldershot Town in July 2010 with a one-year contract that was cancelled in January 2011.
