Alexander Efimovich Gnezdov (Russian: Гнездов Александр Ефимович; 17 September 1908 – 1981) was an Azerbaijani professional football manager and former player who played as a forward. He was known as the first manager of Neftçi PFK.[1]

Gnezdov started his career at Progress Baku in 1926. Progress Baku was the first professional football club of Azerbaijan and founded in 1907.[2]Then he joined Stalinets Leningrad (nowadays Zenit Saint Petersburg) in 1934, where he made ten appearances for the club, scoring six goals in total.[3]
In 1937, Gnezdov was appointed the first coach at Neftyanik (nowadays Neftçi PFK), while he also played as a forward for the same club[1] which was founded on 18 March 1937 and played under the name of Neftyanik until 1968.[4] During his coaching period, the club was mainly consisted of players with Russian descent due to less interest to football among the local people.[5] Despite his managerial status, Gnezdov was also considered a decisive player, especially in important and game-changing situations.[6]
