Carl Onora Ikeme (born 8 June 1986) is a professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Championship club Wolverhampton Wanderers and the Nigeria national team. He has previously played, on loan, at Accrington Stanley, , Charlton Athletic, Sheffield United, Queens Park Rangers, Leicester City, Middlesbrough, and Doncaster Rovers.

Ikeme progressed through Wolverhampton Wanderers' academy and made the first team squad in their 2003–04 Premier League season. Due to Matt Murray's long term injury, he was promoted to the substitutes' bench for a string of games but never played.

To gain first team action, he moved on loan to League Two side Accrington Stanley. He made senior debut on 16 October 2004 when he played the first of four games for them, keeping a clean sheet at Aldershot Town. He also had a further loan move to in Autumn 2005 which was cut short due to a hand injury.

He finally made his Wolves debut the following season, in a 5–1 win over Chester City in the League Cup on 23 August 2005. However, although often on the bench, he had to wait until 26 August 2006 for his first league appearance for the club when he appeared as a late substitute in a 1–0 win over Luton Town.
