Ezekiel Bassey (born 10 November 1996) is a Nigerian footballer who plays as a winger for Barcelona B on loan from Enyimba FC. He is a member of the Nigeria national team. A pacey winger, he is known for his good dribbling ability and very high work rate. Following the NPFL All-Star tour of La Liga in 2016, he was scouted by Barcelona scouts and subsequently secured a loan to the B team from his home club of Enyimba FC.

After his youth career with Emma Ntuk Academy, Bassey signed with Akwa United for the 2013-2014 season.

Recruited by Enyimba's team of scouts at the start of the 2014-2015 season, Bassey already had a reputation as one of the league's rising stars. He finished his first season for the club with 3 goals and over 10 assists in the league to drive Enyimba to their seventh title. He received their Player of the Season award in 2014-2015.

Ezekiel Bassey joined Barcelona B on transfer deadline day, January 31, 2017. His deal has the option of being made permanent at the end of the loan.

He made his debut for the full Nigeria national team on November 17, 2015 in the CAF World Cup Qualifier against Swaziland. He would also play in the African Nations Championship against Tunisia in January 2016.
