Ethan Sutherland (born 25 April 2006) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a left-back or left wing-back for EFL League Two club Exeter City, on loan from EFL Championship club Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Having spent time in the club's academy, Sutherland made his senior debut for St Mirren on 15 July 2023, coming on as a substitute in a 1–0 loss to Montrose in the Scottish League Cup.
In February 2024, he joined Scottish League One side Alloa Athletic on loan until the end of the season.
On 25 August 2024, Sutherland made his professional league debut, coming on as a late substitute in St Mirren's 3–0 loss to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.
On 30 August 2024, Sutherland signed for Premier League club Wolverhampton Wanderers, joining the club's under-21s side.
On 7 February 2025, Sutherland joined National League side Solihull Moors on loan for the remainder of the season.
On 10 August 2026, Sutherland signed for EFL League Two club Exeter City on a season-long loan. Sutherland made his Exeter debut the same day, coming off the bench after 65 minutes in an EFL Cup match against local rivals Plymouth Argyle. He received a red card for two bookable offences, as Exeter lost the tie 2–0.
Sutherland was born in Scotland to a Scottish father and Zimbabwean mother, and holds dual British-Zimbabwean citizenship. On 25 September 2024, Sutherland was called up to the Scotland U19 squad for the first time. The following month, he made his debut in a 2–1 win over Hungary U19.
