This list is of people who were born or raised in the County of Northumberland, in England. The area covered is the ceremonial county, hence the exclusion of places traditionally regarded as being in Northumberland which are now in Tyne and Wear for administrative and ceremonial purposes. The list is intended to complement Category:People from Northumberland.
NB: Clubs listed are those at which the player made 100 or more League appearances or, if not applicable, club at which they made most appearances.
