Philip McCloy (April 1896 – 1972) was a Scottish footballer who played as a full back. McCloy won two caps for Scotland during a seven-year spell with Ayr United. He then played 157 times for Manchester City between 1925 and 1929.

On his international debut in 1924, he was selected alongside fellow newcomer and Ayr United teammate Jock Smith in the Scottish defence against England at Wembley, the match ending in a draw. The following year he was on the winning side in the same fixture at Hampden Park, this time partnered by Jimmy McStay of Celtic.

McCloy was later player-manager of French club Rennes for a short period in 1933.
