Iván Campo Ramos (born 21 February 1974) is a Spanish retired footballer. Originally a central defender, he featured in a defensive midfield role in his later years.

He played for Real Madrid and four other teams in his country, and is also remembered for his spell in England with Bolton Wanderers.

Campo represented Spain in the 1998 World Cup.

Born in San Sebastián, Basque Country, Campo started his career at Deportivo Alavés, in the third division. He stayed there for two 1/2 years, signing with Valencia CF who immediately loaned him for the rest of the season to Real Valladolid, which he helped narrowly avoid relegation from La Liga.

Subsequently, Campo returned to Valencia only to be released, joining recently promoted RCD Mallorca. In the Balearic Islands side, he formed a formidable partnership with Marcelino Elena (later of Newcastle United), as they finished fifth in 1997–98.

In 1998 Campo signed with Real Madrid, and contributed to the club's 1999–2000 conquest of the UEFA Champions League, playing all 90 minutes in the final against former club Valencia.
