Darron Thomas Daniel Gibson (born 25 October 1987) is an Irish footballer who plays for Manchester United, having previously been loaned out to Royal Antwerp and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

In 2007, Gibson, who was born in Derry, was at the centre of a dispute between the Football Association of Ireland and the Irish Football Association, after he opted to play for the Republic of Ireland instead of Northern Ireland. The issue was referred to FIFA and was discussed in the Northern Ireland Assembly.
