Nouha Dicko (born 14 May 1992) is a professional footballer who plays for Wolverhampton Wanderers, as a winger and striker. Born in France, he represents Mali at international level.

Dicko was born in Saint-Maurice, Val-de-Marne, a commune in the suburbs of Paris. He grew up in the city with his family, who originate from Mali.

Dicko began playing football at the age of six with local club Jeanne d'Arc de Maisons-Alfort. At the age of 13 he was signed by Créteil-Lusitanos, staying at the club for three seasons before moving to Strasbourg in spring 2007.

Following his arrival, Dicko's progress was hindered by a number of injuries during his first season at the club, including an ankle injury that kept him out of action for four months. He made his debut for Strasbourg's reserve team in the 2009–10, impressing on a number of occasions despite the team's relegation to CFA 2. His first team debut came during the following season against Stade Plabennecois in a Championnat National match in September 2010.

In 2011, Strasbourg released Dicko due to financial difficulties, and he was offered a trial with Premier League side Wigan Athletic, signing with the club a few weeks later. He made his senior debut for Wigan on 13 September 2011 in a League Cup match against Crystal Palace.

On 27 January 2012, he joined Blackpool on loan until the end of the season. He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 win against Doncaster Rovers, and went on to score four goals in 11 league appearances for the club. He came on as a substitute in Blackpool's 2–1 defeat in the 2012 Championship play-off final against West Ham United. He re-signed for Blackpool on a season-long loan on 17 August 2012. He was recalled from his loan on 3 January 2013.
