Morten Bruun (born June 28, 1965) is a Danish retired football (soccer) player, who played in a defending or midfielder role. He spent his entire club career at Silkeborg IF, with whom he won the 1994 Danish Superliga and 2001 Danish Cup trophies. He played 424 matches and scored 35 goals for the club from 1988 to 2001. He played 11 games for the Denmark national football team, and was an unused substitute when Denmark won the Euro 1992 tournament.

He was brought back to Silkeborg IF as manager in October 2001. He managed the club for nine months, and succeeded in avoiding relegation to the Danish 1st Division. In September 2005, he was appointed manager of SønderjyskE where he stayed for eight months until he was fired.

Morten is currently a respected football expert for Kanal 5 in Denmark which allows him to travel in England and Spain commenting upon live matches, including his beloved Manchester United.

In his free time he is also Head coach for Lyseng Boys 1997 football team.
