Scott Andrew Hogan (born 13 April 1992) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for {{English football updater|MiltonKD}} club Milton Keynes Dons.

Hogan played in the youth system at Rochdale but was released in 2010. He entered non-league football, playing for Woodley Sports, FC Halifax Town, Mossley, Stocksbridge Park Steels, Ashton United and Hyde before a return to Rochdale. He scored 17 goals in 2013–14 which prompted Brentford to sign him in July 2014 for a fee of £750,000. Hogan spent two and a half seasons at Griffin Park and moved to Aston Villa in January 2017. He struggled to establish himself at Villa Park and spent time on loan at Sheffield United in 2018–19 and at Stoke City and Birmingham City in 2019–20 before rejoining Birmingham on a permanent contract in September 2020. He was released at the end of the 2023–24 season.

Hogan was born in England, and has 12 senior international caps for the Republic of Ireland, for which he qualifies by descent.
