Luke Donn Fleurs (3 March 2000 – 3 April 2024) was a South African professional footballer who played as a centre-back for South African Premier Division side Kaizer Chiefs.
Fleurs was born in Cape Town on 3 March 2000.[1] He was from Mitchells Plain but moved to Fish Hoek after signing for Ubuntu Cape Town's academy in 2013, at the age of 13.[2] [3] He made his National First Division debut aged 17,[2] and made 18 league appearances in his first season of professional football.
Fleurs signed for South African Premier Division club SuperSport United on a long-term deal in summer 2018.[3]
On 26 October 2023, Fleurs joined fellow Premiership side Kaizer Chiefs, signing a two-year contract with an option for a further year.[4]
Fleurs represented South Africa at under-20 level.[5] He was called up for the Bafana Bafana in 2021[6] and 2022, albeit without receiving a cap.

The South African Premier Division said a moment of silence will be observed at all first and second-tier games on 6 and 7 April in memory of Fleurs.[9] Six suspects were later arrested in Slovoville, Soweto and were believed to be members of a carjacking syndicate active in Gauteng.[10] .In the memory of Fleurs,Kaizer Chiefs retired jersey number 26
