Ken Thompson (born October 23, 1945) is a former professional footballer who played as a forward.
Thompson began his career with Burnley in England, making a handful of appearances in the Football League during the mid-1960s. He did not establish himself as a regular first-team player at Burnley.
He subsequently moved to Australia, where he played for South Melbourne Hellas in the Victorian State League (later the National Soccer League). He was a prominent member of the South Melbourne team and enjoyed a successful period there, contributing to their success in the local competitions.
Information on specific statistics (goals, appearances, league titles) is limited due to the inconsistent record-keeping of Australian football during the period he played. Details regarding his later career and activities following his playing days are currently unavailable.
