Alois Bernhard "Alec" Eisenträger (born 16 July 1927 in Hamburg) is a former German footballer who played as an inside forward.
Eisenträger moved on to Trowbridge Town and then, in 1949, to Bristol City. Thus, he was part of a professional British football team even before the famous Bert Trautmann moved to Manchester City. He gained promotion with the Robins to the Second Division in 1955. Until he left for Merthyr Tydfil in 1958 he had appeared in 246 games for Bristol City, netting 57 times.
He married a girl from Wales in the early 1950s and had four children.
