Alexandre Stassievitch (born 20 September 1950) is a French former professional footballer who played as a defender. He played club football for Lens, Poissy, Montluçon, Nœux-les-Mines, and Saint-Omer, and represented France at the 1976 Summer Olympics.
Born in Libercourt, Stassievitch began playing football as a center forward for local side Ostricourt. In 1972, he signed for RC Lens and began playing as a defender for the second team. He made his Ligue 1 debut for Lens in 1974, making several more appearances during his time with the club. He was on the bench as Lens lost the Coupe de France 1974-75 final.
Stassievitch spent the following seasons in Ligue 2, one with AS Poissy and two with ÉDS Montluçon. In 1980, Gérard Houllier recruited him for US Nœux-les-Mines. In his two seasons with the club, they entered the promotion playoffs and reached the 1/16-finals of the Coupe de France.[1]
He would spend the next five years playing amateur football for US Saint-Omer before retiring in 1987.
