Steve Leo Beleck A'Beka (born 21 February 1993) is a Cameroonian professional footballer who plays for Ümraniyespor, on loan from Fiorentina as a striker.

Beleck began his career at Greek team Panthrakikos, breaking into the first-team at the age of 16. Following a successful second half to the 2009–10 season, Beleck joined Udinese of the Italian Serie A for an undisclosed fee, signing a five-year deal in July 2010. A year later, Beleck returned to Greece, this time joining AEK Athens on a season-long loan. He played regularly, and returned to his parent club at the end of the 2011–12 season. A month after returning to his parent club, Beleck was loaned out for a second time, joining English Championship side Watford on a one-year loan agreement. In January 2013, Beleck was re-loaned from Watford to Stevenage, for the remainder of the 2012–13 season.

In August 2013, Beleck was signed on a season long loan for RAEC Mons but returned to Udinese in January 2014.

Born in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Beleck joined Greek side Panthrakikos at the age of 15, spending one season in the club's youth system before breaking into the Panthrakikos first-team midway through the 2009–10 season. Beleck made his debut for the club in January 2010, starting in a 3–1 away defeat to Iraklis. He received a red card five minutes into the second-half, and consequently missed Panthrakikos' next two matches. Beleck scored four goals in February 2010; once in a 2–1 loss to AEK Athens, twice in a 2–0 away victory against Larissa, as well as a further goal in a 3–1 home defeat to Kavala. He also scored on the last day of the regular season, netting from the penalty spot to briefly restore parity in an eventual 3–1 defeat to Atromitos. It turned out to be his final appearance for the club. Beleck made 13 league appearances during the season, scoring five goals — although Panthrakikos were relegated at the end of the campaign. His form during the second half of the season attracted interest from a number of large European clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur and Italian side Udinese. He ultimately joined Udinese for an undisclosed fee on 22 July 2010, signing a contract until 2015.
