Charles-Édouard Coridon (born 9 April 1973) is a Martiniquais former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Whilst at Guingamp, Coridon won the 1996 UEFA Intertoto Cup.[1] At Paris Saint-Germain, he is best remembered for scoring a scorpion kick in the UEFA Champions League against Porto in 2004.[2] [3] The goal was fourth-placed in a countdown of the top Champions League goals of all time by ITV Sport.
Coridon represented the France U21 national team at the 1996 UEFA European Under-21 Championship,[4] but he was reported to have turned down France on the senior level. He said that France had 'enough top-quality' players and he would not be needed. Coridon would go on to play for the Martinique national team at the 1993 and 2003 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[5]
