Dame N'Doye (born 21 February 1985) is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays for Turkish club Trabzonspor as a striker.
Born in Thiès, N'Doye began his career with ASC Jeanne d'Arc. In 2006, he signed for Al Sadd SC in the Qatar Stars League.
N'Doye arrived in Europe in the summer of 2006, joining Académica de Coimbra. From 2007 to 2009 he competed in the Superleague Greece, with Panathinaikos F.C. and OFI Crete.
On 12 January 2009, N'Doye moved to Danish Superliga club F.C. Copenhagen. He scored his first goal on 7 March 2009, helping to a 3–0 away win over Randers FC, and finished his first full season with 14 goals, as the club renewed its domestic supremacy.
On 4 August 2010, N'Doye netted the 3–2 winner (also the aggregate score) in the 59th minute of the playoff round of the UEFA Champions League against FC BATE Borisov. In the group stage, he helped his team become the first ever in the country to reach the knockout stages with goals against FC Rubin Kazan (1–0, home) and Panathinaikos (2–0 in Athens).
In the summer of 2012, N'Doye signed with Russian Premier League side FC Lokomotiv Moscow for an undisclosed fee. He quickly became first-choice, scoring seven times in the first half of the campaign; in November 2012, he won a web poll conducted by club fans to be elected player of the month, repeating the feat in October of the following year.
