Carlin Itonga (born 11 December 1982) is a former professional footballer who played as a striker.
Itonga was born in the DR Congo, and raised in England. He began his career with Arsenal, winning the FA Youth Cup in 2001, but he made just one first-team appearance, as a substitute against Manchester United in the League Cup in November 2001. While at Arsenal, Itonga broke several youth team records, including once scoring seven goals in an under-19 match. He had a brief loan spell with Sheffield Wednesday, and also at Oxford United, in September 2002.
After leaving Arsenal in early 2003, Itonga had a brief spell at Enfield, before later playing Cambridge City, Kettering Town and Fisher Athletic.
Itonga retired from football in 2004 at the age of just 24 after a series of injuries. He has since been based in both his native DR Congo and London, working with football academies.
