Stefan Velev (Bulgarian: Стефан Велев; born 2 May 1989) is a Bulgarian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Botev Vratsa.
Born in Sofia, Velev played for Septemvri as a schoolboy, before joining Slavia Sofia. But he found it difficult to break into the first team due to the consistency of Slavčo Georgievski and Pavle Popara.
In June 2008 Velev signed a two-year contract with Lokomotiv Stara Zagora. He made his B PFG and Lokomotiv debut on 9 August in a home 1–0 against Shumen, scoring the goal of the win.
On 13 March 2017, Velev signed a -year contract with Slavia Sofia.[2] He left the club at the end of the 2017–18 season when his contract expired.[3]
On 15 June 2018, Velev signed with Sepsi OSK.[4]
Velev earned his first cap for Bulgaria on 29 May 2012, after coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–0 loss against Turkey in an exhibition game.
