Karol Kisel (born 15 March 1977) is a retired Slovak footballer.
He previously played for Lokomotíva Košice, Ozeta Dukla Trenčín, Bohemians Praha, Sparta Prague and FC Slovan Liberec.
In early 2009 he was linked with Australian A-League club Sydney FC for the 2009/10 season, where he would be reunited with former manager Vítězslav Lavička. On 3 April 2009, it was announced that Kisel had signed a one-year deal with the club.
He scored his first goal for the Sky Blues at home against the Brisbane Roar, which Sydney won 2-1. He scored his second goal in Sydney's 2-0 win over the Melbourne Victory to help claim the A-League Premiership.
Despite Sydney FC offering a new contract, Kisel declined the offer and returned to the Czech Republic to continue his law studies. In June 2010 he signed a 1-year contract with Slavia Prague. Kisel played as captain for the 2010–11 Gambrinus liga. Kisel played his final game with Slavia Prague in their 3-1 win over Bohemians 1905.
On 8 February 2011, Kisel re-signed with Sydney FC for the upcoming 2011-12 A-League Season. He was not eligible to play in the AFC Champions League due to Sydney FC's foreign spots being full. Kisel's last game for Sydney FC was the away Elimination final against Wellington Phoenix on 30 March 2012.
