Anton Rostyslavovych Dudik (Ukrainian: Антон Ростиславович Дудік; born 10 January 2005) is a Ukrainian professional footballer who plays as a forward.

Career

After playing for Volyn Lutsk, Shakhtar Donetsk and Śląsk Wrocław, on 26 January 2024 Dudik joined Carlisle United on a short-term contract until the end of the season following a successful trial period.[2] Although brought in as a development option, he impressed manager Paul Simpson in training, being rewarded with first-team involvement.[3] On 17 February 2024, he made his debut for the club as a second-half substitute in a 4–0 home defeat to Cambridge United.[4] Following the club's relegation, Dudik was offered a new contract at the end of the 2023–24 season.[5]

In October 2024, Dudik joined National League North side South Shields on an initial one-month loan deal.[6]

On 16 May 2025, Carlisle announced he would be leaving in June when his contract expired.[7]

On 12 September 2025, Dudik made his A Lyga debut for Dainava against Džiugas Club.[8][9][10]
