Charles-Édouard Coridon (born 9 April 1973) is a retired French-Martiniquais football midfielder. He represented the Martinique national football team at the 1993 and 2003 CONCACAF Gold Cup. Whilst at Guingamp he won the 1996 UEFA Intertoto Cup.
He is best remembered for scoring a spectacular back heel overhead kick in the UEFA Champions League for Paris Saint-Germain against FC Porto from 2004. The goal was fourth-placed in a countdown of the top Champions League goals of all time by ITV Sport.
He represented France U21 in 1996 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, but he was reported to have turned down France on the senior level. He said France has ‘enough top-quality’ players and he would not be needed.
