George Telfer (born 6 July 1955) is an English retired footballer who played as a forward in the Football League during the 1970s and 1980s, most notably with Everton.

After making his senior debut for Everton on 22 December 1973 he went on to play for them on 116 occasions (scoring 22 times).[1] However, he only made 3 appearances for them in his last two seasons, and then played for San Diego Sockers in the North American Soccer League.[2]
