Steven Hammell (born 18 February 1982 in Rutherglen) is a Scottish professional footballer currently playing for Motherwell.
Hammell joined Southend United in July 2006 on a free transfer from Motherwell after his contract had expired - turning down more established sides such as Derby County, Southampton and Aberdeen. In 2005, Hammell was the subject of a £1m bid from Scottish Premier League Champions Celtic, however the move did not materialise.
Hammell came to speak to Southend manager Steve Tilson after a conversation with former Blues loanee Alan McCormack - also of Motherwell. Hammell praised Tilson and the set-up at Southend and after a nervous 48 hours wait whilst Steven brought his girlfriend down to Essex to check out the area, he agreed to sign a 2-year contract.
Hammell also has been capped at International level, making one appearance against Sweden in 2004 under caretaker manager Tommy Burns.
Hammell rejoined Motherwell in the January 2008 transfer window on deadline day...
